Your Song - Billy Paul

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

Because this is my song this is my song
