If I Am

Performed by Nine Days

Written by John Hampson

So your standing on a ledge,

It looks like you might fall.

So far down,

Or maybe you were thinking about jumping.

Now you could have it all,

If you learned a little patience!

For though I cannot fly,

I'm not content to crawl!...

So give me a little credit,

Have in me a little faith!

I want to be with you forever,

If tommorow's not too late!...

But it's always too late when you've got nothing

So you say!...

But you should never let the sun set on tommorow,

Before the sun rises today...

IF I AM!

Another waste of everything you dreamed of,

I will let you down...

IF I AM!

Only here to watch as you suffer,

I will let you down...

So your walking on the edge,

And you wait your turn to fall.

But you're so far gone,

That you don't see the hands upheld to catch you.

And you could find the fault,

In the heart that you've been handed!

For though you cannot fly,

You're not content to crawl!...

But it's always too late when you've got nothing

So you say!...

But you should never let the sun set on tommorow,

Before the sun rises today...

IF I AM!

Another waste of everything you dreamed of,

I will let you down...

IF I AM!

Only here to as watch you suffer,

I will let you down...

So you're standing on a ledge,

It looks like you might fall...

IF I AM!

Another waste of everything you dreamed of,

I will let you down...

IF I AM!

Only here to as watch you suffer,

I will let you down...

The answers we find,

Are never what we had in mind.

So we make it up as we go along...

I won't mention tommorow.

And we won't make those promises that we can't keep...

I will never leave you!

I will never let you down!

I will never leave you!

I will never let you down!
