Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong?
[Chorus]
You know it's gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together
[Verse 2]
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new?
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through
[Chorus]
But happy times together, we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was never ending
Oh, wouldn't it be nice?
[Bridge]
Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray, it might come true
(Run, run with you) Oh, baby, then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
Oh, we could be married
Oh, we could be married
And then we'd be happy
And then we'd be happy
Oh, wouldn't it be nice?
[Chorus]
You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But let's talk about it
But, wouldn't it be nice?
[Outro]
Goodnight, my baby
Sleep tight, my baby
Goodnight, my baby
Sleep tight, my baby
Goodnight, my baby
Sleep tight, my baby
