IF EVER A HEART WAS IN THE RIGHT PLACE

If ever a heart was in the right place, it's yours
If I need a hand in any tight place, it's yours
If I were lost out in the ocean
I know that somewhere in that ocean
You and your devotion
Would be the life preserver for me
If ever a smile was any sweeter, it's yours
If ever a love made life completer, it's yours
For when I hold you close to me
It's then I know most of all
If ever a heart was in the right place, it's yours
