If The Stars Were Mine (Orchestral Version)

Melody Gardot - If the Stars Were Mine

If the stars were mine
Id give them all to you
Id pluck them down right from the sky
and leave it only blue
I would never let the sun
forget to shine upon your face
so when others would have rain clouds
youd have only sunny days
If the stars were mine
Id tell you what Id do
Id put the stars right in a jar
and give em all to you

If the birds were mine
Id tell them when to sing
Id make them sing a sonnet
when your telephone would ring
I would put them there inside the square,
whenever you went out
so thered always be sweet music
whenever you would walk about
If the birds were mine
Id tell you what Id do
Id teach the birds such lovely words
and make em sing for you
Id teach the birds such lovely words
and make em sing for you

If the world was mine
Id paint it gold and green
Id make the oceans orange
for a brilliant color scheme
I would color all the mountains,
make the sky forever blue
So the world would be a painting
and Id live inside with you
If the world was mine
Id tell you what Id do
Id wrap the world in ribbons
and then give it all to you
Id teach the birds such lovely words
and make em sing for you
Id put those stars right in a jar...and......... .
give them all...to you.......
