| Lyrics: | (J. Cambell, R. Connuelly, Shapiro)
[Recorded April 12, 1962, Los Angeles]
I could show
the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the gray skies to
blue
If I had you
I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I'd never
mind
I could start my life anew
If I had you
I could climb a snow-capped
mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my
side
I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is
nothin' I couldn't do
If I had you
[instrumental-first two verses]
I
could climb a snow-capped mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burnin'
desert
If I had you by my side
I could be a king uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or
renowned
There is nothin' I couldn't do
If I had you
Baby, if I had you |
