Melody Gardot - If The Stars Were Mine (Orchestral Version)(2009)

[00:35.51] If the stars were mine I'd give them all to you
[00:39.34] I'd pluck them down right from the sky and leave it only blue
[00:43.52] I would never let the sun forget to shine upon your face
[00:48.11] So when others would have rain clouds you'd have only sunny days
[00:52.96] If the stars were mine I tell you what I'd do
[00:57.16] I'd put those stars right in a jar and give them all to you
[01:05.05] If the birds were mine I'd tell them when to sing
[01:09.01] I'd make them sing a sonnet when your telephone would ring
[01:13.47] I would put them there inside the square whenever you went out
[01:17.82] So there'd always be sweet music whenever you'd walk about
[01:22.69] If the birds were mine I tell you what I'd do
[01:26.53] I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make them sing for you
[01:30.92] I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make them sing for you
[01:37.16]
[01:39.77] [(scat)]
[01:57.10]
[02:08.39] If the world was mine I'd paint it gold and green
[02:12.10] I'd make the oceans orange for a brilliant color scheme
[02:16.51] I would color all the mountains make the sky forever blue
[02:20.63] So the world would be a painting and I'd live inside with you
[02:25.72] If the world was mine I tell you what I'd do
[02:29.41] I'd wrap the world in ribbons and give it all to you
[02:33.89] I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make them sing for you
[02:38.26] I'd put those stars right in a jar and give them all to you
[02:55.32]
