If I Were

If I were to ride with the wind
If I were to fly with the clouds
Don't you weep and grieve
When the wind blows
And touches your face
When the clouds above
Paint a thousand pictures
Just stop
And close your eyes
You will feel my kisses
And my caress

If I were to swim with the sea
If I were to dive with the whales
Don't you mourn and lament
When the waves splash
And drench your body
When the whales swim
Around your sail
Just halt
And close your eyes
You will feel my hugs
And my embrace

If I were to explore with the earth
If I were to wither with the flowers
Don't you wail and moan
When the soil moist
And touch your feet
When the flowers bloom
In your garden
Just pause
And close your eyes
You will see me
Standing right in front of you
