If Not For You (Alternate Take)

Ooh, it's an easy old world
Yeah, for little old you
Hiding from that sun
Yeah, that old obvious brute
He only comes around, ooh
After the moon goes down
Just to have a little fun
Till the day is done
Ooh

So I say why
Oh, do you even try
To find an alibi
Well, if you stick around
I'd hope you stay the whole damn night
And bring some friends
And bring your folks
Yeah, tag along and tell some jokes

Ooh, and if you're anything like me
Oh, baby, just you wait and see
If this seems like a good idea

If all the lights said stop
And the oceans, they did drop
Well then I'd always feel so on top
If not for you
But, oh, how time went by
Oh, and the oceans, they did rise
And I'd never felt so hypnotized
If not for you

If not for you
Yeah, if not for you
Yeah, if not for you
If not for you
If not for you
Yeah, oh, if not for you
If not for you
Yeah, if not for you
Oh, if not for you
If not for you
