If You Were
the Only Girl in the World
Words by Clifford Grey, Music by Nat D. Ayer
(Public Domain - originally a waltz)
Sometimes when I feel bad
and things look blue
I wish a pal I had...say one like you.
Someone within my heart. to buld a throne
Someone who'd never part, to call my own
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.
