Lyrics
If You Were With Me
I'd swim in shark infested oceans
If you were with me
I'd watch paint dry in slow motion
If you were with me
I'd even walk across Death Valley
Or go streaking at a Nascar Rally
As long as you were with me
I'd get all my teeth extracted
If you were with me
I'd watch "Dallas" re-enacted
If you were with me
Colonic irrigation
Would be a minor irritation
As long as you were with me
Chorus
You make me forget my inhibitions
My preconceptions go out the door
I'm cleansed of all my old suspicions
Confrontation ceases being a chore
Verse
I'd walk across hot coals
If you were with me
Disappear into a black hole
If you were with me
I would jump into the unknown
Without a whimper or a moan
As long as you were with me
Chorus
You make me forget my inhibitions
My preconceptions go out the door
I'm cleansed of all my old suspicions
Confrontation ceases being a chore
Verse
I'd have tea with cannibals
If you were with me
Stick pins in my voodoo doll
If you were with me
I'd even fight a crocodile
And laugh and joke all the while
As long as you were with me
I'd even fight a crocodile
And laugh and joke all the while
As long as you were with me
