Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I could build my whole world around you, darlin'
First, I'd put heaven by your side
Pretty flowers would grow wherever you walk, honey
And over your head would be the bluest sky
[Verse 2]
And I'd take every drop of rain
And wash all your troubles away
I'd have the whole world wrapped up in you, darling
And that would be all right, oh, yeah, yes, it would
[Verse 3]
If I could build my whole world around you
I'd make your eyes the mornin' sun
I'd put so much love where there is sorrow
I'd put joy where there's never been none
[Verse 4]
And I'd give my love to you
For your to keep for the rest of your life
Oh, and happiness would surely be ours
And that would be all right, oh, yes, it would
[Verse 5]
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
[Verse 6]
Oh, if I can build my whole world around you, darlin'
I'd give you the greatest gift a woman could possess
And I would step into this world we created
And give you true love and tenderness
[Verse 7]
That is, if I could build my whole world around you
If I could build it, build it all around you
Then that would be all right, oh, yeah
[Verse 8]
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
