If I were alone in the desert
Without a drink of water around
On my knees and hands in that white, scorching sand
With the hot Sahara sun beating down
If I could be granted my wishes
If anything I want could come true
I know that it might sound funny
But here's what I'd want you to do
Tell Lorrie I love her
Tell Lorrie I need her
Tell her everything would be okay
If I could just see her
Tell Lorrie I love her
Tell Lorrie I need her
If I leave this old world
Tell her she's the only girl for me
2nd verse:
If I were adrift on the ocean
A vessel with no sails or steam
Floating aimlessly on and endless sea
Hopelessly lost it would seem
If all of the fish in the water
Could echo my last dying plea
I know you might not understand it
But here's what I'd want it to be
(chorus)
If I leave this old world
Tell her she's the only girl for me
