If I ruled the world
Every day would be the first day of Spring
Every heart would have a new song to sing
And we'd sing of the joy every morning would bring
If I ruled the world
Every man would be as free as a bird
Every voice would be a voice to be heard
Take my word, we would treasure each day that occurred
My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams
My world would wear a smile on its face
Like the man in the moon when the moon beams
If I ruled the world
Every man would say the world was his friend
There'd be happiness that no man could end
No my friend, not if I ruled the world
Every head would be held up high
There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky
If the day ever dawned when I ruled the world
If I got on my knees and come crawlin' to you little girl
Would you love me once again
Cause I'll do anything to prove that I love you still
And that I'm sorry for the fool I've been
Haven't slept in a month of Sundays and I know one day I'm a gonna lose my sanity
Can't stop dreamin' about you and life without you just don't mean a thing to me
So if I promise to be a good boy and never hurt you anymore
Could things be like they were before
If I promise to be a good boy and be the way you want me to
Could I still have a chance with you
Cause I don't know what made me fool enough to think
That I could live without your love
I must have cried a million tears since our goodbye
Yes and misery fits me like a glove
So if I promise to be a good boy...
If I ever had to say
good bye to you
Let the world come to an end
it wouldn't matter to me then
I wouldn't want to live
with just your memory
Deep inside myself
I never would be free
This life would hold no
happiness for me
I could never say hello
to someone new
If I looked into her eyes
I'd be ashamed and I
despise myself for trying
to recapture what was gone
Just an imitation dream
to wish upon
I'd only hurt her
and that kind of love
is wrong
If I ever had to say
good bye to you
I can't imagine where I go
or what I'll do
There is no way I could face
the world alone
I'd be a puppy dog scared
and lost without a home
So please stay with me
until our time is through
Let me look into your heart
and know that we can
never part and I will
always try to make you
happy too
And the tears I shed
are for a love that's true
You make me laugh,
you make me cry
You make me want to live or die
Just let me look into
your heart
I know that we can
never part
Then I'll never have to say
good bye to you
If ever I should leave you, it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer, I never would go
Your hair streaked with sunlight, your lips red as flame
Your face with a luster that puts gold to shame
But if I'd ever leave you, it couldn't be in autumn
How I'd leave in autumn, I never will know
I've seen how you sparkle when fall nips the air
I know you in autumn and I must be there
And could I leave you running merrily through the snow
Or on a wintry evening when you catch the fire's glow
If ever I would leave you, how could it be in springtime
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so
Oh, no, not in springtime, summer, winter, or fall
No never could I leave you at all
I'm coming home
To your loving heart
To the one that I once
threw way and broke apart
I want you
I need you
A chance is all I'm asking now
I must get back to you somehow
So I am coming home to you
Cause I am nothing without you
Maybe you've found somebody new
But I'm still coming home to you
Please let me stay
And forget your pride
Now my world is falling 'round me
I got nowhere to hide
I want you
I need you
I know it's true, I made you cry
Then like a fool, I said goodbye
Now I am coming home to you
Yes, life is nothing without you
Maybe you found somebody new
But I'm still coming home to you
I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Adore you, and want you so
I'm just a no one,
With nothing to give you but Oh
I Love You
He, He buys you diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But believe me, dear when I say,
That he can give you the world,
But he'll never love you the way
I Love You
He can take you anyplace he wants
To fancy clubs and restaurants
But I can only watch you with
My nose pressed up against the window pane
I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Must watch you, go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
When darling it's I
Who Loves you
I've been in love so many times
Thought I knew the score
But now you've treated me so wrong
I can't take anymore
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it
Fall in love again
All those things I heard about you
I thought they were only lies
But when I caught you in his arms
I just broke down and cried
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it, I mean it
Fall in love again
I gave my heart so easily
I cast aside my pride
But when you fell for someone else, baby
I broke up all inside
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
That's why I'm a-singin' it
Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love
Please don't make me
Fall in love again
I'll buy you diamond rings
I'll give you pretty things
To prove that I love you so
But all I ever want to do
When I'm close to you
Is something you've got to know
Oh baby baby
One things certain
I'll never let you go
I'll buy you diamond rings
I'll give you pretty things
To prove that my love is real
But all I ever want to do
When I'm close to you
Is show you the way I feel
Oh baby baby
One things certain
I'll never let you go
Understand me now
When I tell you that a gift cannot compare
With the love of a man
Or the touch of his hand
As he runs it through your hair
I'll buy you diamond rings
I'll buy you pretty thing
To prove that my love is real
But all I ever want to do
When I'm close to you
Is show you the way I fell
Oh baby baby
One things certain
I'll never let you go.
You didn't have to love me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did
And I thank you
You didn't have to squeeze me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
If you took your love to someone else
I know what I meant to be the loving dare
You made me feel like I've never felt
Your kiss is so good, I got the holler for help
You didn't have to squeeze me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
You didn't have to hold me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
Now every day there's something new
You put your make-up and your mild perfume
You got me trying to do things, too
Just so that I can keep up with you
You didn't have to shake me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
You didn't have to make me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
All my life I've been short changed
Without your love it would be a crying shame
Now I know what love I'm looking for
When they say they're being turned on
I wanna thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you, baby, thank you, thank you I got to say
You didn't have to love me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
You didn't have to hold me, like you did
But you didn't, but you did,
and I thank you
I wanna thank you, baby I wanna thank you, let me count the ways
Let me thank you, baby, baby I've got something to say
I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby since you went away
I haven't spent a happy day
I wake up crying
After sobbin' and sighin'
And a-wonderin' just what went wrong
Pretty baby I was good to you
Why'd you go and make me blue
I need your arms to hold me tight
I need your sweet lips to kiss me goodnight
I'm so unhappy on my own
Don't don't leave me sad and lonely
I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby please come back to me
Save me from this mesery
Oh baby won'tcha save me from this mesery
Please baby won'tcha save me from this mesery
