I watch the way he looks at you 

He don't see you like I do 

He never speaks the words I long to say 



He don't know that what he's got 

Is everything I'll ever want 

I can't keep this inside one more day 



(Chorus:)

If you were my girl 

My feet would never touch the ground 

If you were my girl 

My heart would shout your name out loud 

I could conquer the world 

If you were my girl 



You're the prayer I pray when I'm on my knees 

The oxygen that lets me breathe 

The flame that burns inside me all the time 



Every note of a beautiful melody

The perfect rhyme in poetry 

Baby, you are everything but mine 



(Chorus:)

If you were my girl 

My feet would never touch the ground 

If you were my girl 

My heart would shout your name out loud 

There's nothing that I could not do 

If it was you I came home to 

I could conquer the world 

If you were my girl 



Baby, I swear this flame will burn eternally 

So keep your eyes open, jump on in 

You will see what you need is me 

If you were my girl 



Oh, I'd never want to see you cry 

You're with him and I don't know why 

What a different world 

If you were my girl 



I would conquer the world 

If you were my girl
