[Violet Loraine & *George Robey*]
[Verse 1]
Sometimes, when I feel lone and things look blue
I wish, a boy I had, say one like you...
*Someone, within her heart to build her throne
Someone, who'd never part, to call my own*
[Chorus]
*If you were the only girl in the world*
And you were the only boy
*Nothing else would matter in this world today
We could go on loving in the same old way*
A Garden of Eden just made for two
With nothing to mar our joy
*I could say such wonderful things to you*
There would be such wonderful things to do
*If you were the only girl in the world*
And you wеre the only boy
[Verse 2]
No one, I'd еver care for, dear, but you
No one, I'd fancy, therefore love me do
*Your eyes, have set me dreaming all night long
Your eyes, have set me scheming, right or wrong*
[Chorus]
*If you were the only girl in the world*
And you were the only boy
*Nothing else would matter in this world today
We could go on loving in the same old way*
A Garden of Eden just made for two
With nothing to mar our joy
*I could say such wonderful things to you*
There would be such wonderful things to do
*If you were the only girl in the world*
And you were the only boy
