Píseň: If This World Were Mine

Interpret:
Marvin Gaye
Album:
United [With Tammi Terrell]
If this world were mine, I'd 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
For with your love inside me, that would be all I need


If this world were mine
I'd give you anything


If this world were mine, I'd make you a king
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, honey, just call me
And honey, you're my inspiration
And there's so much sensation
When I'm in your arms, when you squeeze me


And the sky would be blue
As long as you're loving me
With you here in my arms
Life is so wonderful


Give me pretty loving, baby
Give me pretty loving, honey
Keep on loving me
You know I need you, baby
Really, really need you, baby
