If I Could Lyrics
[Chorus]
If I could be whoever I want
Then I'ma be the one that you love, the one that you trust
The one that you need, forever for me
Only for me, if I could have it my way
Filling my cup 'til the feelings go numb
Running it up 'til there's nothing to love
Coming to me if there's something you need
You know, without you, I feel like a fuck-up
[Verse 1]
I'ma take your heart away, like, baby, here we go
I can't take another day, what we waiting for?
You been running through my mind, but you not tired yet (Yet)
Why I never see your face but see your silhouette?
I'm kicking rocks, tell me if it's me or not
Girl, what you need? Baby, I got what you need
I'm bleeding out, be the one to save me now
Before I freeze, I can't wait forever
[Pre-Chorus]
You make it hard for me to last
I can't take much more
Why does it feel like Neverland?
You're all I wanted
If I could be whoever I want
Then I'ma be the one that you love, the one that you trust
The one that you need, forever for me
Only for me, if I could have it my way
Filling my cup 'til the feelings go numb
Running it up 'til there's nothing to love
Coming to me if there's something you need
You know, without you, I feel like a fuck-up
[Verse 1]
I'ma take your heart away, like, baby, here we go
I can't take another day, what we waiting for?
You been running through my mind, but you not tired yet (Yet)
Why I never see your face but see your silhouette?
I'm kicking rocks, tell me if it's me or not
Girl, what you need? Baby, I got what you need
I'm bleeding out, be the one to save me now
Before I freeze, I can't wait forever
[Pre-Chorus]
You make it hard for me to last
I can't take much more
Why does it feel like Neverland?
You're all I wanted
[Chorus]
If I could be whoever I want
Then I'ma be the one that you love, the one that you trust
The one that you need, forever for me
Only for me, if I could have it my way
Filling my cup 'til the feelings go numb
Running it up 'til there's nothing to love
Coming to me if there's something you need
You know, without you, I feel like a fuck-up
[Verse 2]
You better hurry up 'cause you know I hate the wait
But, at the same time, you know I'ma always stay
I made a bad habit, always gettin' in the way
Never knew the devil had a pretty face
I turn to stone when I look in her eyes
She know how to move, smooth in a disguise
I got a hard time with saying goodbye
It's too hard, and this is why
[Pre-Chorus]
You make it hard for me to last
I can't take much more
Why does it feel like Neverland?
You're all I wanted
If I could be whoever I want
Then I'ma be the one that you love, the one that you trust
The one that you need, forever for me
Only for me, if I could have it my way
Filling my cup 'til the feelings go numb
Running it up 'til there's nothing to love
Coming to me if there's something you need
You know, without you, I feel like a fuck-up
[Verse 2]
You better hurry up 'cause you know I hate the wait
But, at the same time, you know I'ma always stay
I made a bad habit, always gettin' in the way
Never knew the devil had a pretty face
I turn to stone when I look in her eyes
She know how to move, smooth in a disguise
I got a hard time with saying goodbye
It's too hard, and this is why
[Pre-Chorus]
You make it hard for me to last
I can't take much more
Why does it feel like Neverland?
You're all I wanted
[Chorus]
If I could be whoever I want
Then I'ma be the one that you love, the one that you trust
The one that you need, forever for me
Only for me, if I could have it my way
Filling my cup 'til the feelings go numb
Running it up 'til there's nothing to love
Coming to me if there's something you need
You know, without you, I feel like a fuck-up
If I could be whoever I want
Then I'ma be the one that you love, the one that you trust
The one that you need, forever for me
Only for me, if I could have it my way
Filling my cup 'til the feelings go numb
Running it up 'til there's nothing to love
Coming to me if there's something you need
You know, without you, I feel like a fuck-up
