Your Song
Capturing Life's Beauty: A Song of Devotion
Lyrics
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
Expressing a peculiar or unique emotion within
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
Acknowledging an inability to conceal true feelings
I don't have much money, but, boy, if I did
Stating a lack of material wealth
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
Imagining a grand gesture of buying a spacious home for shared living
If I was a sculptor, heh, but then again, no
Contemplating being a sculptor or a showman but discarding these ideas
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
Mentioning unconventional professions
I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
Acknowledging the modesty of the songwriter's offering
My gift is my song, and this one's for you
Declaring the songwriter's gift as a song dedicated to someone special
And you can tell everybody this is your song
Encouraging the listener to claim the song as their own
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
Describing the simplicity of the song and its completion
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
Expressing hope that the listener is comfortable with the written expression of feelings
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Highlighting the joy brought by the presence of the listener in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Recalling a moment of reflection on a rooftop
Well, a few of the verses, well, they've got me quite cross
Admitting some difficulty with certain parts of the song
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
Noting the kindness of the sun during the songwriting process
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
Dedicating the song to people like the listener who bring positivity
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
Apologizing for forgetfulness, possibly about the color of the listener's eyes
You see, I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Uncertainty about the color but emphasizing the sincerity of the sentiment
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Clarifying the main point of the message
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
Complimenting the listener's eyes as the most beautiful
And you can tell everybody this is your song
Reiterating the listener's ownership of the song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
Reemphasizing the simplicity of the completed song
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
Expressing the hope that the listener is comfortable with the written expression of feelings
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Reiterating the joy brought by the presence of the listener in the world
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
Repeating the hope for the listener's acceptance of the written expression of feelings
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Reiterating the joy brought by the presence of the listener in the world
