Analysis of If I Were Your Love
One day our love was so wonderful
We've been together from winter to fall
A sweetheart couple since high school
We dream and plan together for our goal
You've been my strengths
And I'm your weakness
You are my motivation
And I'm your inspiration
I've been there when you had nothing
But you lost me when you have everything
Our dreams that we shared together
You really achieved it with her
Cause in the book of destiny?
There's no you and me
But it always you and her
Life is very big unfair
She let me borrow you for twelve years
Cause you're with her for the rest of the universe
I was your prologue and she is your epilogue
Cause I'm just your pages but she is your princess
