lyrics

I would sow a thousand buttons
A thousand buttons on your sweater
To make you feel better

I would build a thousand ladders
A thousand ladders tall
So you would never have to feel small

I would plant a thousand daisies
A thousand daisies deep
Just to keep you near

I would blow up a thousand balloons
A thousand balloons to blow
Just so you would know I'll never let you go

I would do all these things
I would do them for you

I would kiss a thousand monsters
A thousand monsters in all
So you would know I'm not afraid anymore

I would eat a thousand worms
A thousand worms stuck in the dirt
So you would never have to hurt

I would break a thousand bones
A thousand bones to break
Please your love don't ever take

I would invent a thousand colors
A thousand colors to see
Then paint a picture of you and me

I would do all these things
I would do them for you

I would catch a thousand ants
A thousand ants in the sand
Promise you'll always hold my hand

I would read a thousand books
A thousand dusty pages
To see you make one of your silly faces

I would hoot with a thousand owls
A thousand nocturnal friends
Please don't ever let this story time end

I would jump a thousand hops
A thousand hops to jump
I know this love will never stop

I would do all these things
I would do them for you
A thousand ways to say I love you
