It's a little bit funny
this feelin' inside
I'm not one of those
who can easily hide
Don't have much money
But boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where
we both could live
If I was a sculptor ha
But then again no
Or a man who makes potions
in a travelin' show
Oh I know it's not much
But it's the best I can do
My gift is my song
And this one's for you
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple
But now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
that I put down into words
How wonderful life is
while you're in the world
I sat on the roof
And kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses
Well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind
while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
keep it turned on
So excuse me forgettin'
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is
what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple
But now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
that I put down into words
How wonderful life is
while you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
that I put down into words
How wonderful life is
while you're in the world
