This song is why English teachers don't like JB - well, one of the reasons. It is not real, it is just a situation I am imagining so we need to use the Subjunctive Mood here. Why? Because we are talking about a hypothetical situation of me being your boyfriend. It should be 'If I WERE your boyfriend, I'd never let you go.' Well, sorry Justin Bieber fans but this is grammatically incorrect. 'If I was your boyfriend, I'd never let you go.' (subjunctive = hypothetical - I am not sick, but I'm imagining that hypothetical situation) (indicative = states facts or asks questions - in this case, IF can be replaced by WHENEVER)

If I was sick, she would give me medicine that tasted terrible.

It's all picture perfect if you're in it. They say it's where the heart is, well, mine's with you, babe. Note that it is not common to use the indicative mood with IF. Your love is like a porch swing on Sunday. Yes, though the sentence is not in the Subjunctive mood but the Indicative instead. Again, this usage doesn't sound good though unfortunately it is common, especially on the internet (and social media sites). 'I could have turned a different corner/ I could have gone another place/ Then I'd have never had this feeling/ That I feel today'. In informal English, you will hear some people say If I was. 'Only You Can Love Me This Way,' Keith Urban.

She would be still be correcting my grammar if she were still alive.

If he were taller, he'd be accepted into the team.

(But the contrary is true, I AM in debt, so I cannot quit my job)

If I were not in debt, I would quit my job.

In the subjunctive mood we use IF + I / HE / SHE / IT + WERE for the verb To Be. This is a condition which is contrary to fact or reality (the fact is, I am NOT you). The reason we use WERE instead of WAS is because the sentence is in the SUBJUNCTIVE mood which is used for hypothetical situations. Why do you use IF I WERE and not IF I WAS? Notice how the comma is not necessary with this word order. You can also change the order of the sentence This usage doesn't sound good, so avoid it. Though in informal (and grammatically incorrect) English, you may hear some people say If I was.
