If The Stars Were Mine Lyrics
If the stars were mine
I'd give them all to you
I'd pluck them down right from the sky
And leave it only blueI would never let the sun forget
To shine upon your face
So when others would have rain clouds
You'd have only sunny daysIf the stars were mine
I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd put the stars right in a jar
And give 'em all to youIf the birds were mine
I'd tell them when to sing
I'd make them sing a sonnet
When your telephone would ringI would put them there inside the square
Whenever you went out
So there'd always be sweet music
Whenever you walk aboutIf the birds were mine
I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd teach the birds such lovely words
And make 'em sing for you
I'd teach the birds such lovely words
And make 'em sing for youIf the world was mine
I'd paint it gold and green
I'd make the oceans orange
For a brilliant color schemeI would color all the mountains
Make the sky forever blue
So the world would be a painting
And I'd live inside with youIf the world was mine
I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd wrap the world in ribbons
And then give it all to youI'd teach the birds such lovely words
And make 'em sing for you
I'd put those stars right in a jar and
Give them all to you
