Beth, if there had been a girl like you around
Some time ago when I still had a dream or two
Perhaps I might not have my head down on the ground
Watching while the jealous moonlight beamed at you
Beth, if only you had been the one I found
Instead of all those others that I tossed aside
Perhaps you might have worn another brighter crown
And the song would have gone on until the singer died
But life not as you know it
I would've made a show of it
A go of it
If I’d have my chance to try
Beth, if therе could be a chance for us somehow
Nobody knows thе magic I would weave in you
Well in a world I've made a liar up to now
Sometimes I find myself almost believing you
Beth was written by Jimmy Webb.
