Richard Melvin Brown - If Only Lyrics

If I were a painter I'd paint your picture mine
I'd colour it with rainbows and sunshine
I'd paint me in the picture so you'd love me in time
If I were a painter I'd paint you mine

But I might as well be on the far side of the moon
Where no one goes and no one knows just how much I love you
If I could just only take a break from lonely
If you could just only love me

If I were a writer I'd write a song for you
I'd somehow find the words to make you love me
I'd write the perfect melody and then sing it clear and strong
If I were a writer I'd write you a song

But I might as well be on the far side of the moon
Where no one goes and no one knows just how much I love you
If I could just only take a break from lonely
If you could just only love me

Yes I might as well be on the far side of the moon
Where no one goes and no one knows just how much I love you
If I could just only take a break from lonely
If you could just only love me
