Cheap Trick – If I Could lyrics
If I could then I would
But I can't, so I ask
'Cause I really wasn't ready for you

If I knew what you knew
Shouldn't do what I do
'Cause I really wasn't ready for you
(Thinkin' of you)

I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But goodbye was ready for me
Least I'll never have to see you cry
Cryin' is over for me

If I am what I am
And it's all that I can
I mighta had some pity for you

What I choose
What I ooze
What I bet
Win or lose
But I'd still be waitin' on you

I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But goodbye was ready for me
Least you'll never have to see me cry
Cryin' is over for me

Who's cryin' now
The more I think about
The less it matters

Who's cryin' now
The less I think about
The more it matters

As I go 'round the world
And I stop in the whirl
As I whirlwind the world
With you-oou-ou-ou-ou

If I could then I would
But I can't, so I ask
'Cause I really wasn't ready for you

I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But goodbye was ready for me
Least you'll never have to see me cry
Cryin' is over for me

Who's cryin' now
The more I think about
The less that matters
