1168. IF I HAD YOU 1928 |
I COULD SHOW THE WORLD HOWTO SMILE,
I COULD BE GLAD, ALL OF THE WHILE.
I COULD CHANGE THE GRAY SKY TO BLUE,
IF I HAD YOU.
I COULD LEAVE THE OLD DAYS BEHIND,
LEAVE ALL MY PALS, I’D NEVER MIND.
I COULD START MY LIFE ALL ANEW,
IF I HAD YOU.
I COULD CLIMB A
SNOW-CAPPED MOUNTAIN,
SAIL THE MIGHTY OCEAN WIDE.
I COULD CROSS THE BURNING DESERT,
IF I HAD YOU BY MY SIDE.
I COULD BE A KING, DEAR, UNCROWNED,
HUMBLE OR POOR, RICH OR RENOWNED.
THERE IS NOTHING I COULDN’T DO,
IF I HAD YOU.
