"Your Song" 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

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

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

If I was a sculptor,

but then again no
Or a girl 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

now 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

(slowing)
How wonderful life is

now you're in the world
