If We Were

Maybe I'll treat you better 
Maybe I'll be your friend 
Maybe I'll wear your sweater 
Maybe I'll find some time 
To go shopping 
And buy you nicer clothes 
'Cause the ones you've got have got to go 
I'll cook your dinner 
Put some meat on those bones 

That's the least I could do 
I'd be so good for you 

I build you up 
I'll be the best 
You'd have it all 
If we were, if we were 
You'd never be 
So [bad word] depressed 
If we were, if we were 
I build you up 
You'd never rest 
If we were, if we were 
We'd be the most beautiful mess 
If we were forever... 

Maybe I'll do your laundry 
Maybe I'll scratch your back 
Tell you I adore you 
Make you feel like a man 
And all of that 
Now wouldn't that be nice? 
And you've got a life, wouldn't think less 
I'll drive you crazy for the rest of your life 

That's the least I could do 
I'd be so good to you 

I build you up 
I'll be the best 
You'd have it all 
If we were, if we were 
You'd never be 
So [bad word] depressed 
If we were, if we were 
I build you up 
You'd never rest 
If we were, if we were 
We'd be the most beautiful mess 
If we were forever... 

You don't realize what your missing 
All the huggin', all the kissin' 
Shut up and listen to me 

But we're not 
I forgot 

I build you up 
I'll be the best 
You'd have it all 
If we were, if we were 
You'd never be 
So [bad word] depressed 
If we were, if we were 
I build you up 
You'd never rest 
If we were, if we were 
We'd be the most beautiful mess 
If we were forever... 

You don't realize what your missing 
All the huggin', all the kissin' 
Shut up and listen to me 

But we're not 
I forgot
