It Would Be You
by Ben Rector

Album: The Joy of Music

Verse 1
If there was anyone I'd want
To spend about a hundred days with
Laying in the yard, 'staring 'up at stars
Wondering 'where all the planes went

Chorus
It would 'be you, only you
We might not have forever
No time for taking chances
It would be you, always you
When the lights go out
We'll just keep on dancing in the dark
As if the world has got to end
You might as well just end up in my arms, in my arms (oh-oh)

Verse 2
And we'll leave on the news until
The broadcast stops broadcasting
Yes, making drinks instead of plans
While the record player's blasting

Chorus
I sing, it would be you, and only you
We might not have forever
No time for taking chances
It would be you, and always you
And when the lights go out
We'll just keep on dancing in the dark
As if the world has got to end
You might as well just end up in my arms

Bridge
If the sky turns black, if the markets crash
You should check your mom's house
And then you should come back
Cause when it all goes down
I want you by my side
We could stay up till the last sunrise
We could stay up until the last sunrise

Chorus
It would be you, and only you
We might not have forever
No time for taking chances
It would be you, and always you
When the lights go out
We can keep on dancing in the dark, in the dark, in the dark
It would be you till the end of the world
Till the end of the world, yeah
Cause if the world has got to end
You might as well just end up in my arms
