“If only he could love me, like he loves fighting villainy!”
Plot[]
Black Canary and Green Arrow sing.
If Only is the third song in Mayhem of the Music Meister, it is later reprised and sung as the last song. In the song Black Canary sings about how she wishes Batman could love her while the Music Meister watches from afar and sings about how he wishes Black Canary could love him.
In the reprise, Black Canary admits defeat as she watches Batman swing off into the night. However, Green Arrow starts to sing in place of Music Meister and he and Black Canary fall in love.
Lyrics[]
Black Canary: Look at him, save the day,
Keeping evil far away.
A brave man, like no man,
Be my man, Batman...
If only he could love me, he could love me,
If only he could love me, like he loves fighting villainy...
Music Meister: How she sings, sweet as day,
I could take her away.
A fairy voice carries, I'd marry Canary...
If only she could love me...
If only she could love me...
Black Canary: If only he could love me...
If only he could love me...
If only he could love me...
Music Meister: If only she could love me...
If only she could love me...
If only she could love me... like I love... VILLAINY!
Black Canary: Our voices may be in tune, but you sir, don't make me swoon!
Music Meister: Our voices the perfect match, but your life I'll now dispaaaaatch!
Reprise[]
Black Canary: Look at him, he saved the day.
Kept all evil far away.
A brave man, like no man,
His own man, Batman.
Green Arrow: How you sing, sweet as day.
I could take you away.
A fairy voice, carries, I'd marry Canary.
Both: If only he could/she could love me...
If only he could/she could love me...
If only he could/she could love me...
Like we love... Fighting villainy...
