Watching the game, peeking through the wire fence
Children never make sense in who they leave out
Now it’s still the same even though I’ve grown
Never thought I belonged anywhere ‘til now

Chorus:
If you were my girl
this would be my world
There’d be no keeping me
from my wildest dreams
If you were all mine,
I think I’d be alright
Here on the outside,
forever on the sidelines
I swear I’ve never found a thing to hold me here
But if you were my girl, this would be my world

Too many times I struck out on strike one
Chasing the wrong one, then a long walk alone
I’ve never heard the cheer from the grandstand
A nod from my old man on my way home

Repeat Chorus

If you were my girl, this would be my world
