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
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who 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 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 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 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, 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
***THIS IS SIR ELTON JOHN***
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
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
(Chorus)
And you can tell everybody that 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 while you're in the world

Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross

I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
Whenever we’re alone
I get beside myself
Can’t wait ‘til you get home
It’s you and no one else
When I look into your eyes I see
This is more than just a dream
And everyday it grows
And I know
To be this is what’s meant
The way I feel for you
There’s no need to pretend
Just sorry it took so long
Well baby, here’s your song
I live for your laughter
Your happiness is all I’m after
Every time you go away
You take a little piece of me with you
I long to see the sunlight on your face
And you know
You’re the only thing in my life I can’t replace
When it feels this right it can’t be wrong
Just sorry it took so long
Well baby, here’s your song
It might be hard for you to sing along
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not not 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
If I was a sculptor, huh, 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
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done

Or they're blue
Anyway the thing
Is what I really mean
Yours are
The sweetest eyes

Da da da da da yeah
Ooooooh oooh yeah
People on planes
People on trains
People in cars and travelin' in spaceships
To a trillion stars
A million smiles
A million frowns
There's so many streets and towns
To loose yourself, to find yourself
But I found the answer with you
Cause you, you are my one and only
And you, you were the one that showed me love
Through all of this life's confusion
You are the light that guides my way
Here on the stage
I'm all alone
Singing out loud
Here in the spotlight
Are you there in the crowd?
Well I'm talking to you
And I'm trying to say that I miss you so
Sometimes I loose myself, I find myself
I found the answer with you
Cause you, you are my one and only
And you, you were the one that showed me love
Through all of this life's confusion
You are the light that guides my way (my way)
And I know (and I know)
When I'm next to you
All the crazy noise goes away
When I hold you in my arms yeah
I can feel the peace and calm yeah
I can lie here, I can die here with no regrets no no way
You, you are my one and only
And you, you were the one that showed me love
Through all of this life's confusion
You are the light that guides my way
Cause you, you are my one and only
And you, you were the one that showed me love
Through all of this life's confusion
You are the light that guides my way
And it's you yeah
And it's you yeah
And it's you yeah
Just you yeah

Featuring Shin Seung Hun
When I fall in love with a melody
I want to play it all night long
If I lie about what you mean to me
Then I couldn't sing your song - your song
I sing this song girl, just for you & I
Love saw the truth girl, kindness in your eyes
All of this time three years of love
Each day and night I feel in your touch
Sharing the warmth woman to man
Letting you understand...
When I fall in love with a melody
I want to play it all night long
If I lie about what you mean to me
Then I couldn't sing your song - your song
I hope this one girl, shows the truth to you
All in the notes girl inspired by what you do
All of this time three years of love
Each day and night I feel in your touch
Sharing the warmth woman to man
Letting you understand
When I fall in love with a melody
I want to play it all night long
If I lie about what you mean to me

Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
Come a little closer now.
Feel it kinda freak you out.
All the time its getting closer and closer.
Stuck in a kaleidoscope, right about to lose control
When I feel a hand on my shoulder.
Turn around to look- its gone.
Call it superstition but all my thoughts spin me around to you.
What became of you we may never know.
Finally found your wings and you gave it all to watch over me.
Finally found your wings and now your song plays on in me... on in me.
Find it irresistible
To pull the plug on logical,
and wonder how to live for the moment.
Who is lost and what's been found.
When and where and why we're down to resist the best explanation,
you know it.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
Time here is up. Floating away. Maybe it won't come back.
Dust chasing out heels, droplets of rain falling so gracefully.
Time pulled you away but now the emergency can wait.
[Chorus]
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside

Understand
First thing, baby girl, that I am no longer your man.
That doesn't mean, you and me can't be the closest of friends
(And you know)
I even found myself a new girl
(You know)
Fallin' in love with my new girlfriend
Frankly, you know you'll always be in my heart
In my heart
But now
Things are different
You're being too good for me
Don't wanna second guess, baby I gotta be
You're not the girl I knew, now you're like someone new
No I don't want to leave, but I know what I gotta do
[Chorus:]
This is your song
Thanks for all the memories
This is your song
Thanks for everything we use to be
This is your song
Listen to it when I'm gone (When I'm gone)
Next thing you need to know that I ain't even tryin' compete
'Cause I'm your best friend
You should know that
No one can be what you are to me
(And I know)
You got some kind of me replacement
(You know)
I'm not the type that you can be replacin'
And I see, you never meant to be breakin' my heart
But it's hard
But now
Things are different
You're being too good for me
Don't wanna second guess, but baby I gotta be
You're not the girl I knew, now you're like someone new
No I don't want to leave but I know what I gotta do
[Chorus:]
This is your song
Thanks for all the memories
This is your song
Thanks for everything we use to be
This is your song (Hey)
Listen to it when I'm gone (When I'm gone)
You actin' good for me
Like you just too good for me
Better treat me better see
'Cause I'm going to be before for too long
This is your song
Listen to it when I'm gone
You actin' good for me
Like you just too good for me
Better treat me better see
'Cause I'm going to be before for too long
This is your song
Listen to it when I'm gone
[Chorus:]
This is your song
Thanks for all the memories
This is your song
Thanks for everything we use to be
(Everything we couldn't be)
This is your song
Listen to it when I'm gone
[Chorus:]
This is your song
(Things are different you're bein too good for me)
This is your song
This is your song
(You're not the girl I knew now your like someone new)
This is your song
Listen to it when I'm gone
Thanks for all the memories
Here's to everything we couldn't be
This is your song
It's a little bit funny
This feeling inside
I'm not one of those
Who can easily hide
I ain't got much money
But, girl, if I did
I'd buy a big house
Where we both could live

It may be quite simple
But now that it's done
I hope you don't mind

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
They've got me quite cross
And the sun seemed quite nice
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're blue
Anyway, the thing is
What I really mean
Your's are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody
That 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
What 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
What I put down in words
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind

I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
When I look down into your eyes
I can see all the beauty and joy of the world
With the sparkle of light that burns inside
The sun and the moon and the best part of me
Far above is the sun that will cheer us along
The way that we go
When I look down upon your smile
I can see all the things that I wanted to be
So baby don't be afraid and never be sad
just follow that rythm of the skies and the trees
Far above is the sun that will cheer us along
The way that we go
So forget all the tears and the things that are real
Forget all the bad things that this life could bring
With your arms open wide to hold, I'll be beside you forever in time.
When I look down into your eyes
I can see all the universe circling around
Just go follow your spirit and you'll never grow old
Your faith and your soul aren't the the things to be sold
Far above is the sun that will cheer us along
The way that we go
So forget all the tears and the things that are real
Forget all the bad things that this life could bring
With your arms open wide to hold, I'll be beside you forever in time
So forget all the tears and the things that are real
Forget all the bad things that this life could bring

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
You say that Gainesville's got no soul
Well that sounds like a good excuse for coming home
And this Tallahassee skyline that keeps singing out a song
And now it's your song they've been singing all night long
And this Tallahassee rooftop just keeps calling out your name
To come and sing...
So stay
So stay
So stay and watch the stars come out and then the sun as they all fade away
I'll sing you every song I know if it will make you want to stay
And then I'll say
That I missed you
And these words
They'll convince you, to stay
I poured through every song I wrote
Every line that I've cried every note that was split with this pen
And every line in every song, they all seemed to come out wrong,
Until...
Your song
So lets sing it all night long
And this Tallahassee skyline hasn't changed
While the view from every rooftop says to stay
So stay
Stay and watch the stars come out and then the sun as they all fade away
Ill sing you every song I know if it will make you to stay
That I missed you and these words
They'll convince you
And I could call you baby doll all the time
And you'd whisper in my ears, you'd say, "I missed you boy"
Now sing it over again, and over again, and over again (x3)
Still you'd say
That I missed you
And these words
They'll convince you
And I'm hoping as I kiss you
And I could call you baby doll all the time
And you'd whisper in my ears, you'd say, "I missed you boy"
Don't let them take it away
Mama Said
Keep it down, down, down
Put it away
How could I roam in the song (?)
When the words come and go
Every time I hear your song
You fade away
How I've tried for so, so long
Then you will stay
Now nobody can see
See what it means
What it means to you
To me and I
Don't let it fade away
Fade away
To the other side
Oh yesterday
Every time I hear your song
You fade away
How I've tried for so, so long
Then you will stay
Every time I hear your song
Every time, every time
umm, stronger,
so strong, oh
Stronger ev'ry day,
stronger ev'ry night,
holdin' out for peace,
now I'm feelin' stronger,
Watchin' as this storm goes by,
I can see a light,
prisoner of my own design,
my hands are firmly tied,
I could just fade away,
live a life unkown,
I could be somewhere else,
but now I'm heading home, oh
Stronger ev'ry day,
stronger ev'ry night,
holdin' out for peace,
now I'm feelin' stronger,
Walkin' from that sheltered world,
with nowhere left to hide,
my naked soul is runnin' free,
my eyes are open wide, (eyes are open)
searchin' for the higher ground,
to make my life complete,
it's only when you climb that mountain,
the world is at your feet, oh
Stronger ev'ry day,
stronger ev'ry night,
holdin' out for peace,
but ready now to fight, oh,
life owes me nothin',

John-Taupin
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
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
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 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 I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
its a little bit funny this feelin' inside
im not one of those who can easily hide
dont have much money,boy,but if i did
i'll 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 travellin' show
i know its not much,but its the best i can do
my gift is my song and this one's for you
and you can tell everybody this is your song
it may be quite simple but now that its done
i hope you dont mind, i hope you dont mind
that i put down in words
how wonderful life is now youre in the world
i sat on the roof and i kicked of the moss
well a few of the verses,well they got me quite cross
but the sun's been quite kind while i wrote this song
its for people like you that keep me turned on
so excuse me for forgetting, but these things i do
you see ive forgotten, if they're green or blue
anyway the thing is,what i really mean
yours are the sweetest eyes ive ever seen
and you can tell everybody this is your song
it may be quite simpe but now that its done
i hope you dont mind, i hope you dont mind
that i put down in words
how wonderful life is now youre in the world
i hope you dont mind, i hope you dont mind
that i put down in words
It took
one look
and forever lay out in front of me
One smile
then I died
only to be revived by you
There I was
thought I had everything
figured out
goes to show just how much I know
bout the way life plays out
Chorus:
i take one step away
and I find myself coming back
to you
my one and only
one and only
you..
Now I know
that I know not a thing at all
except the fact that I am yours
and that you are mine
if you told me that it wouldn't be easy
and Oh,
I'm not one to complain
repeat chorus
(except the last word)
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
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
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 while you're in the world
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
Haven't you heard?
I'm stuck on a verse
I'm stuck on a boy who fills me with joy
I knew I was wrong to
jump straight on into the picture so pretty
But he is so pretty to me
And he doesn't know just how far I would go
Just to kiss him
He doesn't know how I pine
So I make whirlpools
And watch him sparkle
And we'll make love make magic
And haven't you heard?
I'm fallen head first
And he loves me so
We're two in a row
Just look in his eyes
They're blue as the skies
are picture so pretty
but he is so pretty to me
So I make whirlpools
And watch him sparkle
And we'll make love make magic
But I couldn't tell you
Just tell that it takes you
'Cause words don't make
what I make with you
Haven't you heard?
I'm stuck on a verse
I'm stuck on a boy who fills me with joy
I knew I was wrong
to jump straight on into this picture so pretty
See the tree? how big it's grown,
But friend, it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big...
I laughed at her, and she got mad
The first day that she planted it
Was just a twig...
Then the first snow came,
And she ran out to brush the snow away
So it wouldn't die...
Came runnin' in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt herself
And i laughed 'til i cried...
She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb, and kinda smart
And i loved her so...
And i surprised her with a puppy,
Kept me up all Christmas eve,
2 years ago...
And it would sure embarrass her when i came in from workin' late,
Cause i would know...
That she'd been sittin there an' cryin',
Over some sad and silly late, late show...
And Honey, i miss you...
And i'm bein' good...
And i'd love to be with you...
If only i could...
She wrecked the car, and she was sad
And so afraid that i'd be mad,
But, what the heck?...
Though i pretended hard to be,
Guess you could say she saw through me,
And hugged my neck...
I came home unexpectedly,
And caught her cryin' needlessly, in the middle of the day...
And it was in the early spring, when flowers bloom, and robins sing,
She went away...
And Honey, i miss you...
And i'm bein' good...
And i'd love to be with you...
If only i could...
One day while i was not at home,
While she was there, and all alone,
The angels came...
Now all i have is memories of Honey
And i wake up nights,
And call her name...
Now my life's an empty stage, where Honey lived, and Honey played
And love grew up...
and a small cloud passes over head,
And cries down on the flower bed that,
Honey loved...
And see the tree? How big it's grown,
But, friend it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big...
And i laughed at her, she got mad...
The first day that she planted it,

Sacrifice all my rights. Â Make my broken spirit free to fly.
Break my will. Â Free my mind.
Mend my wings. Â Let me touch the sky.
Overcome who I am.
Make me more than just this broken man.
More of you, less of me.
Make me the man I'm supposed to be.
All I have is nothingness without you,
And all my innocence is gone.
Change me from the inside, rearrange me,
And I'll forever be your song.
Fill my veins. Â Shine through me.
Illuminate my soul and set me free.
My worldview, I despise.
Let me see the world through Jesus' eyes.
All I have is nothingness without you,
And all my innocence is gone.
Change me from the inside, rearrange me,

I would lay down my life
if I could leave it for you
Then there'd be no question why
It's your song
It's your song
And through the worst of our days
we'll make it to the morning
God help what stands in our way
It's your song
It's your song
[Chorus]
You could waste your time in the sunshine every day
but the sun doesn't shine on you like I do
The stars in the sky can fall for you night and day
but they're not gonna fall for you like I do
(Like I do)
It's your song
It's your song
It's your song
(Like I do)
It's your song
It's your song
It's your song
I'll be your last thought at night
I'll never leave you wanting
the one thing I can provide
It's your song
It's your song
And even swallow my pride
if that does something for you
Instead I'll sit here and write
your song
It's your song
[Chorus]
You could waste your time in the sunshine every day
but the sun doesn't shine on you like I do
The stars in the sky can fall for you night and day
but they're not gonna fall for you like I do
My saving grace
is you from this tidal wave
of me 'cause I need
just to see your face
With stones
these bones
are yours to break
But that's nothing compared
to the pain I would take
Like I do
I would lay down my life
if I could leave it for you
Instead I'll sit here and write
your song
[Chorus]
You could waste your time in the sunshine every day
but the sun doesn't shine on you like I do
The stars in the sky can fall for you night and day
but they're not gonna fall for you like I do
My saving grace
is you from this tidal wave
of me 'cause I need
just to see your face
With stones
these bones

But that's nothing compared

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
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
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 while you're in the world
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
It's a little bit fUnny Lord, 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 mansion where we both could live
If, if, if I was a sculpture Lord, honey, but then again, no
(then again no, no)
Or a man who makes potions in a travelin' show
I know it's not much, I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
You gave me a gift Lord, and I'm gonNA sing it for you
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
(this is your song)
It may be a quite, quite simple, but that's how it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
What I wrote down in words, words
How wonderful life is when you're in the world, world, world
If, if, (if), if I was on a rooftop
I'd kick off my shoes (kick off my shoes , kick my shoes off)
I'll write a few verses and then I get the blues
But the sun's been quite, quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you and people like me
I wanna, I wanna keep turnin' on
So excuse me, so excuse me
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do Lord
(these things I do Lord)
You see, you see I've forgotten if they're green or blue
Anyway the thing is, anyway the thing is, what I really mean
You've got the sweetest eyes, you've got the sweetest eyes
The clearest eyes I've ever seen, I hope you got back
I hope you, I hope you got back and tell everybody
That this is your song (this is your song)
It may be quite, quite simple, but now that's how it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
But I wrote down in words Lord, words
I'm doin' it for how wonderful it is when you're in the world, world, world
If, if, (if), if I sat upon a rooftop I'd kick off my shoes, oh yeah
(kick off my shoes, kick my shoes off)
I'll write a few verses and then I get the blues
But the sun's been quite, quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you, people like me
I wanna, wanna keep turnin' on, so escuse me, so escuse me
So escuse me forgetting, but these things I do
(these things I do Lord)
You see, you see I've forgotten if they're green or blue, baby
And anyway the thing is, anyway the thing is, what I really mean
You are the sweetest eyes, the sweetest eyes
The sweetest eyes I've ever seen
I want you to go back, go back and and tell everybody
That Billy Paul's got a song (Billy Paul's got a song)
I'm, I'm gonna sit upon a, a rooftop and kick off my shoes
I'm gonna write it (write it), write it (write it), write it (write it)
I might come out with the Gospel (Gospel), the blues (blues),
The jazz (jazz), the rock and roll
I'm gonna, got to, got to write me a simple song for everybody
Because this is my song (this is my song)
It may be quite, quite simple but that's the way it's done

What I wrote down in words, words
You come back, you try to try again, try again
Tell everybody that Billy Paul's got a song

It may be quite, quite simple but that's how it's done, baby
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
what I wrote down in words
Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it ooooh
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
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss

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
If I was sculpture 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
Aaaa-aaaaaah-aaaa a
Aaaaa-aaaaah-aaaaa-aaah
Oooooo oo oo oooooooooooooooh
Ooo oo ooooooooooooo ooo ooooooh
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
Day and night we try to keep the beat moving on and on
Moving on and on
We leave the scene not knowing what we have to do
Surviving on our own
Leave it to us
To find our way
Through the darkness
Move out of our way
'Cause here we come
Try and stop us
In time
We'll sing this song for you
For you
To everyone that I've ever loved
We'll make it home for you
For you
On our way home
On our way home
On our
Each day and night we try to keep inside what's beating us
But all we do is keep the things inside from taking us
In time
We'll sing this song for you
For you
To everyone that I've ever loved
We'll make it home for you
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
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
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 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 I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Tonight I'd rather be in love
rather it was you flowing through my blood
scraping through my veins, my everything
and you cling to every thread
that clings to me
I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back
but you're the words that weren't enough
you remind me of a song I used to love
I couldn't call you if I wanted
my fingers couldn't work if they tried
they're so sore from keeping crossed
and tracing over cuts on my worthless arms
if I said "I hated the feeling" it would be a lie
I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back
but you're the words that weren't enough
you remind me of a song I used to love
I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back
but you're the words that weren't enough
you remind me of a song I used to love
you remind me of a song I used to love
My gift is my song
And this one's for you
And you can tell everybody
That this is your song
It maybe quite simple
But now that it's done
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
Sat on the roof
And I kicked off the moss
Well some of the verses well
They got me quite cross
But the sun's been kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on
So excuse me for forgetting
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is well I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
[Allesandro- opera]
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
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
Think that I’m in love with you
And there’s nothing more that I can do
But every breath I take
Longs for you
Remember when we used to find ourselves without interruption
We’d be just playing guitar, making melodies, and strumming along with the beat
Singing how we hate the world the pain
But together we can start a band without a name
I’ll sing the lows, you sing the highs
We’ll sing until our voices are dry
I think that I’m in love with you
And there’s nothing more that I can do
But every breath I take
Longs for you
It’s not the same without you here
And I’m trying to persevere
But even when you’re so far away
I love you
I love you
Remember the time that I picked you up from the airport
I was just waiting by my car, smile on my face, and my heart was all in a whirl
Thinking how the hell did I end up here
My heart was closed but now I want you near
Then you wrapped your arms and I held you tight
I had the feeling we might make some music tonight
I think that I’m in love with you
And there’s nothing more that I can do
But every breath I take
Longs for you
It’s not the same without you here
And I’m trying to persevere
But even when you’re so far away
I love you
Just to hear you sing
The joy your song brings
That would be music to my ears
Your voice is so far away
This world is so dark and gray
Please let’s play that song again
I think that I’m in love with you (Just to hear you sing)
And there’s nothing more that I can do (The joy your song brings)
But every breath I take (That would be music to my ears)
Longs for you
It’s not the same without you here (Your voice is so far away)
And I’m trying to persevere (This world is so dark and gray)
But even when you’re so far away (Please let’s play that song again)
I see a place, I see a face,
I'm in my own world and that's where I'm staying.
I feel at peace.
Something so powerful, cleansing my entire.
And when I hear your song it makes me feel at ease.
(Chorus:)
And when I'm in the mood, maybe I'll play that song for you.
So I'll pop it in again and again.
It makes me feel better and I felt so bitter.
Too weak, too strong, no right, not wrong.
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
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
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 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 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

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
So pass the torch
This is not a test
And as of now
It doesn't get much better than this
Believe me when I said
I would be brave
If you promised
That nothing's ever gonna change
And you know
We'll take the long way home
And when we get there
I'll be with you all alone
We'll ditch these night
Just to lay in bed
I could promise forever
But my actions would be better than that
So, lets take this slow
We got forever babe
On my own
I'll make this right
What you don't know
Is that tonight
We can be the ones who dream this bright
We set the stage for a gorgeous night
To the tune of a thousand starry eyes
It's so easy to be alone
With the blues and the hazels
And the open road
And you know
We'll take the long way home
And when we get there
I'll be with you all alone
We'll ditch these night
Just to lay in bed
I could promise forever
But my actions would be better than that
So, lets take this slow
We got forever babe
On my own
I'll make this right
What you don't know
Is that tonight
We can be the ones who dream this bright
You know
We got forever babe

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 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, 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
Tonight I'd rather be in love,
rather it was you flowing through my blood
scraping through my veins my everything.
And you cling to every thread
that clings to me.
*CHORUS*
I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back,
but you're the words that weren't enough
You remind me of a song I used to love.
I couldn't call you if I wanted.
My fingers couldn't work if they tried.
They're so sore from keeping crossed
and tracing over cuts on my worthless arms
If I said "I hated the feeling" it would be a lie.
*CHORUS* (X5)
My gift is my song and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now 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
I sat on the roof, and I kicked off the moss
Well some of these verses, well they've,
They've got me quite cross
But the sun's been kind while I wrote the 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're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now 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
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
Follow me into the water
Get the sound of her pure tones
As we walk a little deeper
We can tell each other secrets no one else know
The sun is fading from my view
Don’t worry I will take care of you
The Sun is tired eager is the Moon
When I am with you I know I will be home soon
Take my hand and I make sure we’ll be home before dawn
Take my hand and I make sure we’ll be home before dark
Follow me into the forest
Get the Sun out of your eyes
Here where nothing real can harm us
Where butterflies and dandelions, where orange leaves lie
The sky is slowly getting darker
Don’t worry I’ll be your protector
Your eyes are telling me you are tired
Don’t worry home is around the corner
Take my hand, and I’ll make sure we are home before dawn
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
If I was a sculptor, heh... but then again, no
Or a man who 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 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 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 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 that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that its 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...
Number one in my life has to be my Savior.
Has to be the one who loves me forever and ever.
I had to make this sacrifice,
To keep Him where He ought to be.
I feel I owe it to Him
Since he died for me.
I'm sorry to get you involved in this.
I'm sorry I took your heart
And clenched it in my fist.
I didn't mean the hurt I obviously caused.
I just want you to know what is in my heart.
A change for the better a broken heart for life.
You may not see the good in this.
Something had to be done
To keep me where I belong.
Right now it doesn't seem right,
Why we had to suffer and
I see a million faces
Drawn in the sky
And all I want to know is where you are
I'm standing in a corner
Of a coffee shop in Spain
Wondering ‘bout yesterday
And out comes the rain
Will you catch me if I fall?
Take my hand, hold my thoughts and keep me close
‘Till the sunny days are back
And my memories complain
That there’s no more space for anyone but you
I see you’re constellation
Shining bright and clear for me
Don’t want the dawn to break today
I want to spend a moment
Staring deep into the dancing flames
Your eyes look into mine
Some deserve a poem from the heart
Some, a melody to make them move
But you my dear deserve a song tonight
That will make your heart move a little more for me
Will you catch me if I fall?
Take my hand, hold my thoughts and keep me close
‘Till the sunny days are back
And my memories complain
That there’s no more space for anyone but 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
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
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 while you're in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of thes 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'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 but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
When you know that im gone you will
say to yourself
AI have nothing anymore,
nothing to ignore,
no one to make sure you=re ok
to make sure you=re ok.
You've got bedtime eyes
and you bat 'em like a hero and to no surprise
you just kill me, kill me sometimes.
(Sometimes)
Im not getting any closer
getting any closer
Im not getting any closer
getting any closer
any closer to you again
its not the same as it used to be before
Like times of sneaking
lips speaking in whispers
and I kissed hers
but did she know it all along
I swear she knew it all along
Its like holding her responsible
for everything, all the things I've become
You're the one to blame for...
for everything, all the things I've become
You're the one to blame for...
You're the one to blame for...
for everything, all the things I've become
You're the one to blame for...
When you know that im gone you will
say to yourself
AI have nothing anymore,
nothing to ignore,
no one to make sure you=re ok
to make sure you're ok.
Like times of sneaking
lips speaking in whispers
and I kissed hers
but did she know it all along
I swear she knew it all along
Its like holding her responsible
for everything, all the things I=ve become
Everything means nothing
and that nothing means everything to me
You've got bedtime eyes
and you bat 'em like a hero and to no surprise
you just kill me, kill me sometimes.
(Sometimes)
Im not getting any closer
getting any closer
Im not getting any closer
getting any closer
any closer to you again
its not the same as it used to be before
You're the one to blame for...
for everything, all the things I've become
You're the one to blame for...
You're the one to blame for...

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
If I was a sculptor, but then again no
Or a man who 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 yeah, and this one's for you
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 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

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
