If You Live
Matt Pond PA
If You Want Blood (2007)

I fell running through the fields, and you fell with me
Our arms and legs were crossed under the grass's green
I don't want to get caught looking, but somehow I always
do
Your lower teeth stuck out the same way that mine do

We would run through crowds at fairs with no one noticing
Thousands and there's only one thing I could see
Now I wish I knew truth if it was happening
Look, here comes the proof bigger than anything

'Cause if you live a love
Live it like your last
Because the time will come, and the time will pass
If you live a love
Live it like your last
Live it like your last

Your hands upon the wheel, you led me to Ottawa
I looked at you, you looked back, and I looked away
I was trying to prove there was something wrong
That was not the truth, it wasn't anything

'Cause if you live a love
Live it like your last
Because the time will come, and the time will pass
If you live a love
Live it like your last
Live it like your last

If I catch you with a phone call
I'll be killing inhibition
I'll say everything I know I've never said before
Like you breathing in the backseat on a bed of metal brackets
Your arms went straight to me as if they knew

If you live a love
Live it like your last
Live it like your last

I wish I could prove everybody wrong
I wish I'd never lose anybody
I wish I could prove everybody wrong
I wish I'd never lose anybody
