"If I Could See the World" Lyrics

Written by Sammy Masters, Richard Pope and Tex Satterwhite
(As released by Patsy Cline 9/9/58)

If I could see the world
through the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be
There'd be no trouble and no strife
Just a big happy life
With a bluebird in every tree

[Chorus]
I could see right, no wrong
I could see good, no bad
I could see all the good things
In life I've never had
If I could see the world
through the eyes of a child
What a wonderful world this would be

If I could see the world
through the eyes of a child
Smiling faces would greet me all the while
Like a lovely work of art
It would warm my weary heart
Just to see through the eyes of a child

[Chorus]
