If I Had My Life To Live Over
Kate Smith · Other Songs - Kate Smith
As I review my life with you
Since the days of old
I wouldn't think of changing things
For all the World and its gold
If I had my life to live over
I'd do the same things again
I'd still want to roam
Near the place we called home
Where my happiness never would end
I'd meet you when school days were over
And we'd walk through the lanes we once knew
If I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you
If I had my life to live over
I'd do the same things again
I'd still want to roam
Near that place we called home
Where my happiness never would end
I'd meet you when school days were over
And we'd walk through the lanes we once knew
If I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you
Yes, if I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you
Since the days of old
I wouldn't think of changing things
For all the World and its gold
If I had my life to live over
I'd do the same things again
I'd still want to roam
Near the place we called home
Where my happiness never would end
I'd meet you when school days were over
And we'd walk through the lanes we once knew
If I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you
If I had my life to live over
I'd do the same things again
I'd still want to roam
Near that place we called home
Where my happiness never would end
I'd meet you when school days were over
And we'd walk through the lanes we once knew
If I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you
Yes, if I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you
