If this world were mine I would place at your feet All that I own You've been so good to me
If this world were mine I'd give you the flowers The birds and the bees And with your love inside me It would be all I'd need
If this world were mine I'd give you anything
If this world were mine I would make you a queen With wealth untold You could have anything
If this world were mine I'd give you each day So sunny and blue If you wanted the moonlight I'd give you that too
If this world were mine I'd give you anything
Oh baby you're my consolation And there's no hesitation When you want me Baby just call me
Oh you are my inspiration I feel so much sensation When you're in my arms When you're near me<> Woah woah The sky would be blue Long as you're loving me
Woah woah When you're here in my arms Life is so wonderful
Woah woah Gimme pretty loving baby Gimme pretty loving honey Keep on loving me
Woah woah You know I need you baby I really really need you honey Keep on loving me Woah woah
---- "If This World Were Mine" was originally performed as a duet by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell from their album United, releasing in 1967. It was written solely by Gaye, and despite being more of a soulful song, Ambrose Slade decided to cover it. Allmusic.com wrote "However, this album of tasteful covers is charming, even if Holder has trouble reaching the notes on Marvin Gaye's often covered but still somewhat obscure If This World Were Mine."
