The Most Beautiful Girl In The World

The most beautiful girl in the world today
And if you did, was she crying, crying
Hey, if you happen to see
The most beautiful girl that walked out on me
Tell her I'm sorry
Tell her I need my baby
Won't you tell her that I love her
I woke up this morning
Realized what I had done
I stood alone in the cold grey dawn
I knew I lost my morning sun
I lost my head and I said some things
Not from the heart except the morning brings
I know I'm wrong, I couldn't see
I left my world slip away from me
So hey, did you happen to see
The most beautiful girl in the world today
And if you did, was she crying, crying
Hey, if you happen to see
The most beautiful girl that walked out on me
Tell her I'm sorry
Please tell her that I need my baby
Won't you tell her that I love her
Hey, did you happen to see
The most beautiful girl in the world today
And if you did, was she crying, crying
So hey, if you happen to see
The most beautiful girl that walked out on me
Tell her I'm sorry
Please tell her that I need my baby
Won't you tell her that I love her
