Your Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money, but, boy, if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
[Verse 2]
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
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
[Chorus]
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 in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
[Verse 3]
If I was a sculptor, but, then again, no
Or a girl 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
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money, but, boy, if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
[Verse 2]
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
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
[Chorus]
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 in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
[Verse 3]
If I was a sculptor, but, then again, no
Or a girl 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
[Bridge]
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
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 in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
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 in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
