Were I

from A Bottle of Oil by The Soundrops

lyrics

if I were her glove
I would give her so much warmth I`ve always wanted to give
she wouldn`t know about the love of this glove of hers
but I would be the happiest glove of the world
...and this little reward
the touch of her hand...
sometimes sometimes
I wish I were her glove

oh my Lord please change me
make me useful for her life
I want to give she doesn`t need
oh let her have some more from my love
than maudlin songs

if I were her watch
I would give her so much time I`ve always wanted to give
she wouldn`t watch the tiny love of this watch of hers
but I would be the happiest watch of the world
...and this little reward
the glance at my face...
sometimes sometimes
I wish I were her watch

oh my Lord please change me
make me useful for her life
I want to give she doesn`t need
oh let her have some more from my love
than maudlin songs

if I were her bow
I would give her such bright tones I`ve always wanted to give
she`d never bow to the little love of this bow of hers
but I would be the happiest bow of the world
..and this little reward
her fingers` applause...
sometimes sometimes
I wish I were her bow
