If I Loved You (Duet with Audra McDonald) [From "Carousel"] - Josh Groban

Can you tell tomorrow by stars in the sky Is there any reason Is it all just a lie When you're in the desert with a fist full of sand Why do you curse the ocean Because it never goes as planned If I didn't have you What would I be If I didn't have you What could I see If I didn't have you What would I do If I didn't have you If I didn't have you Sitting in the backseat With all of your fears If time is the driver Tell me who is going to steer Put it all together Sit yourself up straight Don't you know that good Is the enemy of great If I didn't have you What would I be If I didn't have you What could I see If I didn't have you What would I do If I didn't have you If I didn't have you Somebody wake me up Somebody wake me up I wanna get up I wanna get up Somebody wake me up Somebody wake me up I wanna get up 'Cause If I didn't have you What would I be If I didn't have you What could I see If I didn't have you What would I do If I didn't have you If I didn't have you

Say, tell me somethin' Hm? Ain't ya scared of me? I ain't scared Hey your name, Julie, Julie somethin' Julie Jordan You're a queer one, Julie Jordan Ain't ya sorry that you didn't run away? You can still go if you wanna I reckon that I care to choose to stay You couldn't take my money if I didn't have any And I don't have a penny, that's true And if I did have money, you couldn't take any 'Cause you'd ask and I'd give it to you You're a queer one, Julie Jordan Ain't ya ever had a fella you give money to? No Ain't ya ever had a fella at all? No Well ya must've had a fella you went walkin' with Yes Where'd you walk? Nowhere special I recall In the woods (No) On the beach (No) Did you love him No, never loved no one, I told you that I'm never gonna marry, if I was gonna marry I wouldn't have to be such a stickler But I'm never gonna marry, and a girl who don't marry's got to be much more particular Suppose I was to say to you that I'd marry you You wouldn't marry anyone like me, would you? Yes I would, if I loved you It wouldn't make any difference what you- Even if I died for it How do you know what you'd do if you loved me How you'd feel or anything? I don't know how I know Huh Tis the same, I know how I, how it'd be if I loved you When I worked in the mill, weaving at the loof I'd gaze absentminded at the roof And half the time the shuttle would tangle in the threads And the walk would get mixed with the woof If I loved you But you don't No I don't But somehow I can see Just exactly how I'd be If I loved you Time and again I would try to say All I'd want you to know If I loved you Words wouldn't come in an easy way 'Round in circles I'd go Longing to tell you but afraid and shy I'd let my golden chances pass me by Soon you'd leave me Off you would go in the mist of day Never, never to know How I loved you If I loved you I can smell 'em, can you? The blossoms, their wind brings them down Ain't much wind tonight Hm? Hardly any You can't hear a sound, not the turn of a leaf Nor the fall of a wave hitting the sand The tides creeping up on the beach like a thief Afraid to be caught stealing the land On a night like this, I start to wonder What life is all about And I always say two heads are better than one to figure it out I don't need you or anyone to help me I've got to figure it out for myself We ain't important, what are we? A couple of specks of nothing Look up there There's a hell of a lot of stars in the sky And the sky's so big, the sea looks small And two little people, you and I We don't count at all You're different alright, don't know what it is You look up at me with that little kid face like you Like you trusted me I wonder what it'd be like What? Nothing, I know what it'd be like It'll be awful, I can just see myself Kinda scrawny and frail and picking at my food And lovesick like any other guy I'd throw away my sweater and dress up like a dude In a Dickey and a collar and a tie If I loved you But you don't No, I don't But somehow I can see Just exactly how I'd be If I loved you Time and again I would try to say All I'd want you to know If I loved you Words wouldn't come in an easy way 'Round in circles I'd go Longing to tell you but afraid and shy I'd let my golden chances pass me by Soon you'd leave me Off you would go in the mist of day Never, never to know How I loved you If I loved you I'm not a fella to marry anybody Even if a girl was foolish enough to want me to I wouldn't Don't worry about it, Billy Who's worried? You're right, about there being no wind Blossoms are just coming down by themselves Just their time to, I reckon

Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it's breaking When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by If you smile through your fear and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through For you Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by If you smile And maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through For you Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile

Some days I can't say why I'm feeling lonely And some days I am too proud to ask for help And I stumble through the noise trying to find some peace A stranger in the crowd, I lose myself So I walk down to the river Where the troubles, they can't find me Let the waters there remind me The sun will be there when we wake I walk down to the river Though I might not understand it It's not always as we planned it But we grow stronger when we break So I walk down to the river I walk down to the river This raging world can get so overwhelming Looking for a meaning when it won't make sense In my head, it's getting loud like I can't outrun this cloud No matter where I go, well there I am So I walk down to the river Where the troubles, they can't find me Let the waters there remind me The sun will be there when we wake I walk down to the river Though I might not understand it It's not always as we planned it But we grow stronger when we break So I walk down (walk down) to the river (down) I walk down (walk down) to the river (down) Let the calm pull me under Far beyond the thunder And tell me it will all be okay Let the waves take all my worries Conquer them with fury Give me shelter, be my escape I walk down to the river Where the troubles, they can't find me Let the waters there remind me The sun will be there when we wake I walk down to the river Though I might not understand it It's not always as we planned it But we grow stronger when we break So I walk down (walk down) to the river (down) I walk down (walk down) to the river (down) I walk down to the river (down) I walk down to the river, to the river (down) To the river I walk down, oh, oh, oh, oh To the river, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh
