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!
