If I Had the Talent
If I had the talent
I would write a book
About the world from my point of view
Here in my little nook
If I had the talent
I'd always want to sing
My lovely voice I'd always share
And happiness I'd bring
If I had the talent
I'd cook the day away
The house would be filled with pans of cake
And perhaps some yummy flambe
If I had the talent
I would play a sport
My days would be spent on the soccer field
Or perhaps in the tennis court
If I had the talent
I'd try talking to that boy
My flirting skills would work out well
And that would bring much joy
If I had the talent
I'd play an instrument
I'd express myself through music more
And catch myself a gent
If I had the talent
I would often love to dance
The celebrities on TV shows
Wouldn't stand a chance
But could someone without talent
Help their friends in times of need?
Know when to comfort those in pain?
Know when to stop or heed?
But I say that is talent itself!
We each have different skills to share
We all have talent as long as we help
Our loved ones and show that we truly care
