If I Lost You Now by Nerina Pallot Lyrics

If I lost you now, would I cry
And hang my head forlorn instead?
Would I greet each day in silence
And wipe each tear, each hopeless hole
Wordlessly away until I slip into shadows?
If I lost you now, would I be sorry?
Would I slowly stumble on somehow?
Would I hide my eyes to this empty life
If I lost you now?

Would the world go on regardless
And foreign runes of time pursued?
Love is his name and ever shall be
How could they know what I'd let go?
I'd beg the bitter end of days to swallow me whole

If I lost you now, would I be sorry?
Would I slowly stumble on somehow?
Would I hide my eyes from this lonely life
If I lost you now?
If I lost you now?
If I lost you now, would I cry?
Oh my god, would I!
