|
I watch the way he looks at you
|
He don't see you like I do
|
He never speaks the words I long to say
|
|
He don't know that what he's got
|
Is everything I'll ever want
|
I can't keep this inside one more day
|
|
Chorus:
|
If you were my girl
|
My feet would never touch the ground
|
If you were my girl
|
My heart would shout your name out loud
|
I could conquer the world
|
If you were my girl
|
|
You're the prayer I pray when I'm on my knees
|
The oxygen that lets me breathe
|
The flame that burns inside me all the time
|
|
Every note of a beautiful melody
|
The perfect rhyme in poetry
|
Baby, you are everything but mine
|
|
Chorus 2:
|
If you were my girl
|
My feet would never touch the ground
|
If you were my girl
|
My heart would shout your name out loud
|
There's nothing that I could not do
|
If it was you I came home to
|
I could conquer the world
|
If you were my girl
|
|
Baby, I swear this flame will burn eternally
|
So keep your eyes open, jump on in
|
You will see what you need is me
|
If you were my girl
|
|
Oh, I'd never want to see you cry
|
You're with him and I don't know why
|
What a different world
|
If you were my girl
|
|
I would conquer the world
|
If you were my girl
|
