The Most Beautiful Girl In The World Lyrics

Could you be the most beautiful girl in the world?
It's plain to see you're the reason that God made a girl

When the day turns into the last day of all time
I can say I hope you are in these arms of mine
And when the night falls before that day I will cry
I will cry tears of joy cause after you all one can do is die, oh

Could you be
the most beautiful girl in the world?
Could you be?
It's plain to see you're the reason that God made a girl
Oh, yes you are

How can I get through days when I can't get through hours?
I can try but when I do I see you and I'm devoured, oh yes
Who'd allow, who'd allow a face to be soft as a flower? Oh
I could bow and feel proud in the light of this power
Oh yes, oh

Could you be the most beautiful girl in the world?
Could you be?
It's plain to see you're the reason that God made a girl
Oh, yes you are

And if the stars ever fell one by one from the sky
I know Mars could not be, uh, too far behind
Cause baby, this kind of beauty has got no reason to ever be shy
Cause honey, this kind of beauty is the kind that comes from inside

Could you be the most beautiful girl in the world?
So beautiful, beautiful
It's plain to see you're the reason that God made a girl

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

One of the most beautiful songs of all time!! This is breath-taking. I love his passion, his desire, his love for her, wow. Sounds like he has just died and gone to heaven! he's so in awe of her beauty, it's amazing. If only every man could be this passionate and romantic!! This song is so pretty, so magical, I just love it, I'll always love it. It's purely divine. The words are just incredible, so poetic and just so beautiful. Yeah there should be way more comments here!!! Classic, classic song. Unforgettable. "Who'd allow, who'd allow a face to be soft as a flower? I could bow and feel proud in the light of this power" wow. "It's plain to see you're the reason that God made a girl" Beautiful.

couldnt have put it any better than daydreamer82. prince has a knack for performing songs with such emotionally quality and perfect execution. in the hands of nearly any other artist and this would have been slushy and sickening...but prince makes this version (i find it is more heartfelt than the other version) both sad and uplifting. this song alone can prove it, the man is a genius.
