Verse 1

Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
And we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong 

Bridge

You know it's gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together 

Verse 2

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through 

Bridge

What happy times together we'd be spending
I wish that every kiss was never ending 
Oh, wouldn't it be nice

Middle 8

(guitar repeats first two bars of intro)
Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true 
Baby, then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do 
We could be married (we could be married)
- last two bars of intro -
And then we'd be happy (then we'd be happy)
Oh, wouldn't it be nice

Coda

(slow down)
You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But let's talk about it 
(resume original tempo)
Wouldn't it be nice
Good night, baby
Sleep tight, baby... (fade)
