If I Had You Lyrics by Rod Stewart

If I Had You

[Ooh, ooh, ooh]
You by my side
You by my side
[Ooh, ooh]

The other day I saw you walkin' [ooh]
You looked as pretty as a peach
You seemed so near
And yet somehow you're out of my reach [out of my reach]

If I had you I'd have the power [I'd have the power]
To do most anything I choose [whatever you wanted]
Oh, oh, oh, I would not care
Sometimes I'd win [you win, you win]
Sometimes [sometimes] I'd lose, oh, wee

I could change the world [if I could change the world]
If I had you [by my side]
I could change the world [if I could change the world]
If I had you [by my side, yeah]

My momma told me not to worry [I don't cheating]
She said "It'll all come to those who wait"
[Come to you and you won't be wait]
But as I wait, I feel, oh, no
That it's much too late
That's why [never too late, baby]

I could change the world [if I could change the world]
[Change the world]
If I had you [ooh, you, if I had you]
I could change the world [if I could change the world]
[If I could change the world]
If I had you [only you] by my side [yeah] by my side

If I could change the world
[If I had you…ooh…]
If I could change the world [ooh]
[I could change the world]

Oh, yeah

I could change the world [if I could change the world]
If I had you [just me and you, just me and you, baby, yeah] [by my side]
I [ooh, ooh] could change the world [if I could change the world]
[Whatever you wanted]
If I had you [oh, yeah, if I had you] oh, yeah

I could change the world [oh]
If I had you [if I had you]
I could change the world [never, never too late now, no, no]
If I had you, oh, yeah

I [oh, yeah, yeah] could change the world
[I could change the world, I could change the world]
If I had you [if I only, if I only]
I could change the world
[I could change the world, I could change the world]
If I had you [by my side, oh, yeah] [yeah]

I could change the world
[Oh, you, whatever you need, I gave what you need]
[I could change the world]
If I had you
I could change the world
[I could change the world] [could change the world, yeah, yeah]
If I had you [if I get you] [oh, yeah, yeah]

I [ooh, ooh] could change the world [I could change the world]
If I had you [if I had, if I get you]
I…
