  • 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

    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh

    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 Writer/s: Bernard J. P. Taupin, Elton John
