It’s a little bit funny this feeling 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 but then again no
or a man makes potions in a traveling show
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 a 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 in words
how wonderful life is while you’re in the world
solo
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
but 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 forgetting but these things I do
you see I’ve forgotten
if they’re green or they blue
anyway the things is what I really mean
yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is a 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 in 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 in words
how wonderful life is while you’re in the world
