If I could I'd like to be, a great big movie star Overnight sensation, drive a big expensive car I would buy you everything your little heart desires These things I do, 'cause I'm stone in love with you (Stone in love with you) If I were a business man, I'd sit behind a desk I'd be so successful, I would scare wall street to death I would hold a meeting for the press to let them know I did it all, 'cause I'm stone in love with you (Stone in love with you) I'm just a man, an average man Doing everything the best I can But if I could, I'd give the world to you I'd like to someday be the owner of the first house on the moon There would be no neighbors, and no population boom You might say that all I do is dream my life away I guess it's true, 'cause I'm stone in love with you I guess it's true, 'cause I'm stone in love with you I guess it's true, 'cause I'm stone in love with you
