Your Song

[Verse 1]

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside

But I'm not one of those who can easily hide, oh I

Well, I don't have much money, but boy if I did

You know I'd buy a big house where we both could live, oh live

[Verse 2]

If I were a sculptor, but then again no

Or a man sitting making potions in a traveling show, oh I

Well, I know it's not much, but girl, it's the best I can do

You see, my gift is my song and this here one's for you, ooh, just for you

[Chorus]

And you can tell everybody that, that this is your song

Oh, the words may be quite simple but now that it's done, yeah

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, yes girl, uh huh, yes girl

[Verse 3]

I sat on the roof child, yes I did in fact, I kicked off the moss

But a few, a few of the verses, you know they, well they got me quite cross

Oh, but the sun's been real kind while I wrote, wrote down this song

You see it's for people like you that, well that keep it turned on, oh

[Verse 4]

So please excuse my forgetting, but these things I do, yeah

Well, you see girl I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue

Oh, well anyway, you know the thing is, honey, what I really mean

God knows that only yours are the sweetest eyes I believe I have ever seen

Oh Lord, yeah

[Chorus]

And you can tell everybody there that, that this is your song, yes you can

Oh, the words may be quite simple but, but now that it's done

Yes, I hope you don't mind, don't mind

That I put down in words

How wonderful life is while you're in the world

Every single line, one more time, girl

I hope you don't mind, hope you don't mind

That I put down in words, ooh, these sweet words

How wonderful life is, baby, while you are in my world

[Outro]

Believe I sit you here on the dock of the bay, watching the tide rolling away

Say I'll be thinking of you, love, sweet memories to all of you, all of you
