Lyrics

I see Autumn colors of red, gold and orange.
Tractors in the valley hauling hay to a barn
Leaves are blowing high, and coming down like rain
against big blue sky, cross fields of grain.

I smell wood smoke, cut hay, just a faint hint of snow.
I hear turkeys calling in the meadow below.
All this beauty and still not perfect world.
But it could be baby, if you were my girl.
CHORUS
If you were my girl, you would always be,
my life, my love and the air I breath.
This whole wide world would fade from view.
You would be holding me, and all I would see is you.

Now I think of when we met at the Jackson county fair.
How you lit up the night like a solar flair.
In that sea of faces, I could see only one,
Then your smile hit me like the heat of the sun.
CHORUS
If you were my girl you would always be,
my life, my love and the air I breath.
This whole wide world would fade from view.
You would be holding me, and all I would see is you.

BRIDGE
Oh that guy you were with he said things I won't mention
Every woman passing by, caught his attention.
That guy you were with, he ain't much of a friend.
Why don't you hang him out to dry and let him twist in the wind?

CHORUS
If you were my girl, we could sit back at my farm
Or hike through these hills of red gold and orange.
This whole wide world would fade from view.
You would be holding me and all I would see is you
