If You were ...



Another moment of great creativity from our students.
This time the challenge was to finish/continue a song by Katie Melua. You have to see what they've done!!!
And you can watch the video clip with the original lyrics in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wjItnh8M70

If You Were A ...

If you're a cowboy, I would be your cowgirl
If you're a piece of wood, I would be a piece of you
If you're a sailboat, I would be your ocean
If you're a river, I would be your water
If you're a house, I would be your ceiling
If you're a preacher, I would be your words

If I was in jail, I know you would be my freedom
If I was a telephone, you would be my calls
If I was in pain, I know you would help me

If I was hungry, you would be my food
If I was in darkness, you would be my light
If I was a book, I know you would be my words

If you're a cowboy, I would be your cowgirl
If you're a piece of wood, I would be a piece of you
If you're a sailboat, I would be your ocean
If you're a sailboat, I would be your ocean

If You Were A ...

If you're a cowboy, I would be your horse
If you're a piece of wood, I would be a piece of you
If you're a sailboat, I would be your river
If you're a river, I would be a fish
If you're a house, I would be your roof
If you're a preacher, I would be your listener

If I was in jail, I know you would be a policeman
If I was a telephone, you would be my numbers
If I was in pain, I know you would be my cure
