If I Could Build My Whole World Around You Lyrics


Oh, if I could build my whole world around you, darlin'
First, I'd put Heaven by your side
Pretty flowers would grow wherever you walked, honey
And over your head would be the bluest sky
Then I'd take every drop of rain
And wash all your troubles away
I'd have my whole world wrapped up in you, darlin'
And that would be alright, oh yes, it will
If I could build my whole world around you
I'd make your eyes the morning sun
Oh I'd put so much love where there is sorrow
And I'd put joy where there's never been none
And I'd give my love to you
For you to keep for the rest of your life
Oh, and happiness would surely be ours
And that would be alright, oh, yes, it would
Oh, if I could build my whole world around you
I'd give you the greatest gift that any woman could possess

And I'd step into this world you created
And give you true love and tenderness
And there'd be something new with every tomorrow
To make this world better as days go by
That is if I could just build my world around you
If I could build my whole world around you
And that would be alright, oh, yeah
If I could build my whole world around you
If I could build it, build it all around you
And that would be alright, oh, yeah
If I could just build my world around you
If I could build it build it my whole world around you
And that would be alright

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Tammi Terrell began recording for Scepter/Wand Records at the age of 15, before touring with the James Brown Revue for a year. Terrell's talents won her a contract with Motown Records in Detroit, Michigan later that year, at which time she changed her stage name to Tammi Terrell (contrary to popular belief, Terrell did not marry boxer Ernie Terrell, brother of future Supremes lead singer Jean Terrell).
