If I Could Make You Blue

(album: Take Me With You - 1970)

If I could make you blue
I surely wouldn't do
But I would 'cause I can't make you blue

If I could make you cry
I surely wouldn't try
But I would 'cause I can't make you cry

You don't even know that I'm here
You don't even know that I'm near
To your eyes and your teeth
That I'm near to your nose and your knees

If I could make you sad
I wouldn't do like that
But I would 'cause I can make you sad

If I could let you wait
This song would be unmade
But I would 'cause I can't let you wait

You don't even know I'm around
You don't even know that I am bound
To your smile and your hair
That I am bound to your love and your care

If I could make you blue
I surely wouldn't do
But I would 'cause I can't make you blue

If I could make you cry
I surely wouldn't try
But I would 'cause I can't make you cry

If I could make you sad
I wouldn't do like that
But I would 'cause I can't make you sad
