Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If this world were mine
I would place it at your feet
All that I own
You've been so good to me
[Verse 2]
If this world were mine
I'd give you the flowers
The birds and the bees
And if your love's beside me
That would be all I need
[Verse 3]
If this world were mine
I would give you anything
[Verse 4]
If this world were mine
I would make you a king
With wealth untold
We could have anything
[Verse 5]
If this world were mine
I'd give you each day
So sunny and blue
And if you wanted the moonlight
I would give you that too
[Verse 6]
If this world were mine
Oh, baby
I'd give you anything, hey
[Verse 7]
Oh, baby, you're my inspiration
And there's no hesitation
When you're home
Honey, just call me
[Verse 8]
Oh, baby, you're my consolation
And I feel so much sensation
When I'm in your arms
When you squeeze me
[Verse 9]
The way that you do
The way you love me
Oh yeah, oh yeah, the way that you do
[Verse 10]
Oh ohh, every sky would be blue
As long as you're loving me
Baby, whoa ohh
[Verse 11]
With you here in my arms
Life is so wonderful my love
[Verse 12]
Oh ohh
Give me pretty lovin', baby
Give me pretty lovin', honey
Keep on lovin' me, baby
[Verse 13]
Honey
You know I need you, honey
You know I need you, baby
Keep on lovin' me, yeah
[Verse 14]
Loving me the way you do, my love
Ohh, and I'd never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, let you go, no
Oh, oh
You know the world would be yours
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yes it would
[Verse 15]
The world would be yours
Baby, baby
Ooh, ooh
It would be yours
If you'll believe
