Grammar help please?

Hi,

Could you please explain to me what exact differences between these two words in this sentence?

I was told, there is not much difference. Pick the one you like and sounds better, is this idea correct?


Would - will

Could - can


If wasn't you, I [ would / could ] have drowned.


Cheers
