Standard (EADGBE)

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

Chorus

 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
