If you were the only girl
Johnny Kidd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I were the only boy
Nothing else would matter in the 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
There would be such wonderful things to do
If you were the only girl in the world
And I were the only boy
A garden of Eden just made for two
With nothing to mar our joy
I would say such wonderful things to you
There would be such wonderful things to do
If you were the only girl in the world
And I were the only boy
The lyrics of "If You Were The Only Girl In The World And I Were The Only Boy" are inspired by the idea of meeting that one special person who stands out in a crowded world. The first two lines set up the context for the rest of the song, suggesting that if both the man and the woman were the only one in the world, nothing else would matter. The song envisions this hypothetical scenario as a "garden of Eden," a paradise that the two could share and enjoy together.
The repetition of "wonderful things to do" emphasizes the limitless possibilities of their time together, and the extent to which their happiness and joy depends on being together. The song suggests that this kind of love is so strong that it can overcome any obstacle or challenge.
Overall, the song is a romantic ballad that celebrates the idea of true love, devotion, and commitment. It speaks to the deep desire of human beings to find a soulmate, someone with whom we can share our lives and build a meaningful connection that lasts a lifetime.
