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