If I Loved You

If I Loved You

"If I Loved You" is a show tune from the 1945 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical "Carousel". The song was introduced by John Raitt and Jan Clayton. It was performed in the film version by Gordon MacRae and Shirley Jones.

In the show, the characters of Billy Bigelow and Julie Jordan sing this song as they hesitantly declare their love for one another, yet are too shy to express their true feelings.

The song was in turn inspired by lines of dialogue from Ferenc Molnar's original Liliom, the source material for the musical.
