if you go
if you take a first baby step
i'll take a step with you
if you go outside to play in the rain
i'll get on my coat and i'll go outside too
if you ride your bike all the way to school
i'll stop working early and as a new rule
i'll come and watch what you do
if you buy a house that's a little bit far
i'll write down your address to know where you are
and i'll take a vacation
and i'll drive my car over to you
if you go to the desert and live in the sun
i'll buy a camel just for our fun
and i'll ride round the rocks
and over the sand
you'll be my oasis in a burning hot land
if you go down deep under the sea
i'll get a job in a submarine
and i'll buy a big suit
and disguised as a whale
i'll swim to your home and i'll wave my big tail
and i'll sing whale love songs to you
if you go to live on top of a mountain
where it always is snowing there's so little oxygen
i'll buy a big rope and a big tank of air
and i'll practice and practice until i'm prepared
then i'll run up the side and i'll run through the snow
and i'll climb and i'll climb 'till i'm ever so close
then i'll throw up my rope and the air for us both
and i'll sit and i'll visit with you
if you need to go and dance in the stars
and nobody knows just where that you are
i'll build a telescope as big as a house
with a built in space searcher that will seek you out.
and when i find out your orbit i'll buy a space ship
that's so big inside you can dance inside it
and i'll zoom with my rockets right past the sun
and i'll fly to your side and i'll learn how it's done
and i'll never come back unless you do
and i'll never never never leave you
