Oo-ooo if I had you, yeah the things that I could do
Honey, if I had you
Now I could sing like an angel, fly just like a bird
Sing you the best love song you ever heard
I could be a poet like mohammed ali
Float like a butterfly, sting just like a, just like a bee
Mmm, ooo, if I had you, ahhh the things that I could do
If I had you
Now Id go get your name tattooed on my chest
Well itd just say my baby, my baby, shes the best
Could be your superman, you could be my lois lane
I could be a tarzan, you could be my sweet jane - if you
wanted to
Mmm if I had you, ah the things that I could do
If I had you
Yeah one more time
Ooo if I had, only had you, yeah the things that I could do
Oh boy
Only if I had you
So come on dance with me baby, dont let me go
Yeah dance with me baby, dont let me go
Baby dont let me, dont let me
Dont let me go, oh no
