If Anything Happened to You
Vocals: Co. Leitrim Irish singer Charlie McGettigan.
Lyrics: By Charlie McGettigan.
If Anything Happened to You
If anything happened to you.
If my worst fears should ever come true.
I’d have no reason to carry on through,
If anything happened to you.
I cannot imagine a world,
Without you around me to hold.
My days would be empty, my pleasures be few,
If anything happened to you.
If anyone took you away,
Or somehow you wandered astray.
There’s nowhere I wouldn’t pursue,
If anything happened to you.
So promise me you will take care,
But it’s a wicked old world out there.
I’d be devastated, be broken and blue,
If anything happened to you.
If anyone took you away,
Or somehow you wandered astray.
There’s nowhere I wouldn’t pursue,
If anything happened to you.
So promise me you will take care.
But it’s a wicked old world out there.
I’d be devastated, be broken and blue,
If anything happened, if anything happened, to you.
END
