If I Could

If I had a way of studying your mind
just as you study your textbooks,
I would study your every move
until I could ace the test in my sleep.
If I had a way of helping myself
just as fully as you help others,
I would help myself to you.
If I had a way of making you laugh
just as you make me laugh,
you would gasp for want of breath.
If I had a way of letting you know
just exactly how much you mean to me,
I would do exactly that.
If I had a way of gliding the airwaves
just as you glide the pavement when you run,
I would glide to your ears so that
you could hear me whisper,
"I love you."
