If You Were My Girl

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
Break: G A D G A Bm D
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
Outro: D
