Lyrics

Oh, if I could build my whole world around you, darling 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 Then 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 alright, oh yes it will If I could build my whole world around you I'd make your eyes the morning sun I'd put so much love where there is sorrow I'd put joy where there's never been none Then I'd give my love to you For you to keep for the rest of your life Oh, and happiness would surely be ours And that would be alright, oh, yes it would Do-do-do-doo-doo Do-do-do-doo-doo Do-do-do-doo-doo Do-do-do-doo-doo Oh, If I could build my whole world around you I'd give you the greatest gift any woman could possess And I'd step into this world you created And give you a true love and tenderness And there'd be something new with every tomorrow To make this world better as days go by That is, if I could build my whole world around you If I could build my whole world around you That would be all right, oh yeah If I could build my whole world around you If I could build my whole world around you Then that would be all right, oh yeah If I could just build my world, baby If I could build it, build it, all around you (And that would be alright)
