Your song
jaar: 1992

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again no
or a man who makes potions in a travelling 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

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, 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 forgetting, but these things that 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 now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, hope you don't mind
That I put down into words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

Hope you don't mind, hope you don't mind
that I put down into words
how wonderful life is while you're in the world
