Your Song

In the style of

Billy Paul

Lyrics

it's a little bit funny, lord
this feeling inside

i'm 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 i was a sculpture, lord

but did again, though

or a man who makes potions

in a traveling 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 gon' sing it for you

and you can tell everybody

that this is your song

it may be a quite, quite simple
but that, oh, but

that 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 i was on a rooftop
i'd kick off my shoes

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 all turning on

so excuse me
for forgetting, but

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 have the sweetest eyes
you've got the sweetest eyes

the clearest eyes
i've ever seen

i hope you know that
i hope you, i hope you wrote

back and tell everybody
that 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 doing it for
how wonderful it is

when you're in the world
world, world, world

if, if, if i sat upon
a rooftop

it'd kick off my shoes, oh yeah

i'll write a few verses

and then i get the blues

but the sun's been at you
quite, quite kind

while i wrote this song

it's for people like you

and people like me

i wanna, wanna
keep all turning on

so excuse me, so excuse me

so escuse me
for forgetting, lord

these things i do

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 ever seen

i want you to go back
go back and tell everybody

that billy paul got a song

i'm, i'm gonna sit upon a
the rooftop and kick

off my shoes

i'm gonna write it
write it, write it

i might come out with
the gospel, the blues

the jazz, the rock and roll

i'm gonna, got to, got to

write me a simple
song for everybody

because this is my song

it may be a quite, quite simple
but that's the way it's done

i hope you don't mind
i hope you don't mind

what i wrote down
in words, words

you come on back, you try
to try again, try again

tell everybody
that billy paul's got a song

it may be a 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

get back
