IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU

For the first time I can breath baby
And everytime you touch me I'm relieved
It's clear to me that you're here to stay

When morning comes I am too sugar
Tomorrow okay, plays on my mind already
Hurt me then make me feel better babe

Honey down my winding road
Peach juice corners my mouth
Your berries buried China deep
If it wasn't for you I'd never win

Strange strawberries dripping ripe
The banana's photogenic memory
Cherries popping caramel coconut
If it wasn't for you I'd never win

For the first time my love will stay there
Have all the temper tantrums I want to
Can't see through my rose tinted glasses

Your full moon rises for the occassion
Yesterday has its receipt in case I need pity
Return me then take me back baby

If it wasn't for you
Truly wasn't by you
Boy I'd never win
If it wasn't for you
