lyrics

If I Had You
words and music by Irving Berlin

Verse:
I never envied the rich millionaires
I never wanted to have what was theirs
I never bother about their affairs
As others do

All that I want is a chance to be glad
I’ve grown so tired of being so sad
There’s only one thing I wish that I had
That’s you, just you

Chorus:
If I had you
To just be around when I’m blue
A “Four by Two”
Would be like a mansion on Fifth Avenue

I wouldn’t change places with Carnegie
Or anyone else that I know
There’d be hours and hours of sunshine and flowers
If I had you

Verse:
I never envied those rich millionaires
Who sit around in their silk covered chairs
Any old sofa with someone who care
Would more than do

Just you and me and I’d want nothing more
Maybe a baby to play on the floor
I’d have a whole lot to be thankful for
If I had you
