Album: Life With You
When I was a young boy,
My mama said to me,
"There's only one girl in the world for you,
but she probably lives in Tahiti".
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
just to find her.
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas
Where the Caribbean sea is blue
Weeping in a tropical moonlit night
Because nobody's told her 'bout you.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
just to find her.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
Just to find out where they hide her.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
just to find her.
Why am I hanging around in the rain out here
Trying to pick up a girl?
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears
When there's girls all over the world?
Well, is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere,
Underneath the tropical sun,
Pining away in a heatwave there,
hoping that I won't be long?
I should be lying on that sun soaked beach with her,
caressing her warm, brown skin,
and then in a year or maybe not quite,
We'll be sharing the same next to kin.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
just to find her.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
Just to find out where they hide her.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
just to find her.
I'd go the whole wide world,
I'd go the whole wide world,
Just to find out where they hide her.
(Hey!)
