If You Were The Only Girl 
( In the World )

 

If you were the only girl in the world 

and I were the only boy!

 

Nothing else would matter in the world today 

we could go on loving in the same old way!

A garden of Eden just made for two 

with nothing to mar our joy

 

I would say such wonderful things to you 

there would be such wonderful things to do

if you were the only girl in the world 

and I were the only boy!

 

< instrumental break >

 

A garden of Eden just made for two 

with nothing to mar our joy

 

I would say such wonderful things to you 

there would be such wonderful things to do

if you were the only girl in the world 

and I were the only boy!
