Lyrics

Not You
Roy Hurd

If God came down from heaven
And stood on the mountain top
With just one wave of a mighty hand
He made the whole world stop
Then confidently her turned to me and said
Give it your best shot
Do whatever it takes to make a better world

First I’d put an end to hunger
The food would all be free
I’d make it so this whole world felt
Like one big family
So that any time anywhere was a safe place to be
I’d change this world if he left it up to me

Chorus:
But not you
I wouldn’t change a thing about you
Not you
I’d leave you just the way you are
Cause I want you to love me
The way you’ve always loved me
If I could change it all that’s just what I’d do
But not you

War would be just a memory
In this new world that I’d make
We’d heal the earth by giving back
More than what we take
Then I’d fill every heart with love
So there’d be no room for hate
There’s at least a million things I would rearrange

Repeat Chorus:

I’d do my best to make a perfect world
Ah but I could never make someone
More perfect than you girl

Not you I wouldn’t change a thing about you baby
Not you I’d leave you just the way you are
Not you I wouldn’t change a thing about you baby
I love you just the way you are
