and when i told them how beautiful you are
they didn't believe me
they didn't believe me
your lips your eyes your curly hair
are in a class beyond compare
you're the handsomest boy that one could see
and when i tell them
and i'm suddenly going to tell them
that i'm the boy whose life one day you'll be
they'll never believe me
they'll never believe me
that from this great big world you've chosen me
and when i told them how wonderful you are
they didn't believe me
they didn't believe me
your lips your eyes your cheeks your hair
are in a class beyond compare
you're the loveliest girl that one could see
and when i tell them
and i'm suddenly going to tell them
that i'm the man whose wife one day you'll be
they'll never believe me
they'll never believe me
that from this great big world you've chosen me
you're not proposing
i'm just supposing
that from this great big world you
chosen just me
