Originally i had named this song 12 AM song becoz i wrote it then. But you'll know why I've chosen to call it "iF". Anyway here it is:

iF (Reasons)

If it were a perfect world
I'd have no reasons to sing this song
if it were a perfect lie
I'd have no reasons to do no wrong

oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no...
what have I done
where have I gone
left alone
in this dark night
thats taking too long
to give in to the dawn
left alone
in a crowded life

If it were a perfect season
i wouldn't have stuck plastic leaves to the bare  trees
if it were the perfect Sun
i'd have let the clouds collide with the breeze

oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no...
what have I done
what have I become
left alone
in this dark night
thats taking too long
to give in to the dawn
left alone
in a crowded life

but one day when the roads
are leading you wrong
you'll realise why I
chose to sing this song
we'll sit together
and wait for the dawn
we'll sing along
n we'll sing along

what have we done
where have we gone
left alone
in this dark night
its taking too long
to give i to the dawn
we're all alone
in a crowded life
(such a crowded life)

if it were a perfect picture
i'd have no reasons to paint it down
if it were a perfect sky
i'd have all the wings to fly alone

if it were a perfect smile
i'd have no reasons to break the fall
if it were a perfect life
i'd have no reasons to live at all...

Alright. i didn't like it while I was typing and i guess you wouldn't too. Some line seem longer but i've pulled them off while singing. The whole song follows a simple chord progression plucked to death a semitone lower. If anyone's interested i could post the tabs. Meanwhile I'd be looking out for your hate mails, advice, ops, et all. Bye ;

I like it. Couldn't find any ways to change it. I really like the line "Left alone in a crowded life"..I think everyone can relate to that.

hey Sachin,

the title seems a little incomplete to me... 'if' seems to only fit half the song, and I reckon you should find another word that fits the other half.... ie 'if only'   'if, then'    etc etc            

I love the song though! It'd great to see the tabs if it's not too much trouble :)

Alterego,I agree on the title change. Maybe change it to "if it were perfect" or something in that order. I like the song but you kind of thru me with part about plastic leaves. The last verse is awsome. Later Nite.............

lyrics belong in songs, poems bolong in bookstores
