If Not For You (Alt. Concept)

[Refrain]
You know you never had a bad idea
That I wouldn't try

[Verse 1]
So I'm wondering what good can come from me
Stopping by
You say there's nothing for me here
Tell me to turn around
But every time I get you near
I say the quiet part out loud

[Refrain]
But you never had a bad idea
That I wouldn't try

[Verse 2]
If the sky was hanging low
And the moon forgot to glow
Then I would walk this world alone
If not for you

[Refrain]
Yeah, I never had a bad idea
That you wouldn't try
[Verse 3]
So trouble is as trouble does
I guess it comes as no surprise
Yeah, there's nothing for you here
You burned every bridge in town
Every time that you come near
I say the quiet part out loud

[Refrain]
Yeah, I never had a bad idea
That you wouldn't try

[Bridge]
Oh, how time went by
And the oceans, they did dry
And I always felt so hypnotized
Not by you
All the lights said, "Stop"
And the oceans, they did drop
Well then, I'd always feel so on top
If not for you

[Outro]
If not for you
If not for you
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (If not for you)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (If not)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
All the lights said stop
All the lights said stop
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
