If

If I had your eyes
I would conquer your view

If I had your mind
I would reside in you

If I had your soul
I would glow like you

If I had your trust
I would always be true

If I had your heart
I would always love you

If I had your love
I would surrender anew

If I had your wisdom
I would have married you
