If It Isn't You

If it isn't you
Someone new
Will come along
They always do

Attraction has never been a want
I've always been a beguiling sort

She will have golden hair
That tends to cover one eye more than the other
And shimmers and sparkles in the wind
Just as the sun's rays dance and skim
Upon the surface of the ocean
Moments before it falls under the horizon

She'll write love letters and bake biscuits
That fill the house with the sweetest air
In the dead of winter

She will love me
And she will say she loves me
And I will say I love her too
And I will say I love her
And she'll know it isn't true
If it isn't you

She might have raven's hair
That flows over her fragile shoulders
As a spilled bottle of Ink over a sketch of perfection

She'll be wicked and wild with silver dangling
And a rose tattoo painted on her breast
And demons that show themselves
At the most inopportune times

She will love me
And she will say she loves me
And I will say I love her too
And I will say I love her
And she'll know it isn't true
If it isn't you

She will be beautiful
She will be brilliant
She will be warm and kind
She will be cool and cutting and dangerous
She will be the envy of all the world
She will be mine

She will love me
And she will say she loves me
And I will say I love her too
And I will say I love her
And she'll know it isn't true
If it isn't you
