If You Live

i fell running through the fields and you fell with me

our arms and legs were crossed under the grass's green

i don't want to get caught looking

but somehow i always do

your lower teeth stuck out the same way that mine do

we would run through crowds at fairs with no one

noticing

thousands and there's only one thing i could see

now i wish i knew truth if it was happening

look here comes the proof bigger than anything

cause if you live a love

live it like your last

because the time will come and the time will pass

if you live a love

live it like your last

your hands upon the wheel, you led me to ottawa

i looked at you, you looked back and i looked away

i was trying to prove there was something wrong

that was not that truth, it wasn't anything

cause if you live a love

live it like your last

because the time will come and the time will pass

if you live a love

live it like your last

if i catch you with a phone call

i'll be killing inhibition

i'll say everything i know i've never said before

like you breathing in the backseat

on a bed of metal brackets

your arms went straight to me as if they knew

if you live a love

live it like your last

i wish i could prove everybody wrong

i wish i'd never lose anybody

i wish i could prove everybody wrong

i wish i'd never lose anybody
