- If I Only Had A Match Lyrics / with translationsIf I only had a match, then my cares I'd soon forget.
All I need would be a match if I had a cigarette.
If I had a cigarette, I could make the smoke rings curl.
But I'd really be all set, if I only had a girl.
If I had someone like you, to hurry to each night,
In a cozy bungalow, we'd know such sweet delight.
We could raise a family, and a little garden patch,
And to think this all could be, if I only had a match.
If I had someone like you, to home to each night,
In a cozy bungalow, we'd know such sweet delight.
We could raise a family, and a little garden patch,
And to think this all could be, if I only had a match
All I need would be a match if I had a cigarette.
If I had a cigarette, I could make the smoke rings curl.
But I'd really be all set, if I only had a girl.
If I had someone like you, to hurry to each night,
In a cozy bungalow, we'd know such sweet delight.
We could raise a family, and a little garden patch,
If I had someone like you, to home to each night,
In a cozy bungalow, we'd know such sweet delight.
We could raise a family, and a little garden patch,
And to think this all could be, if I only had a match
