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
If I was a sculptor, but then again no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
Oh 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 while you're in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
You 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 while you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

Hi Cynthia... Out of my 22 songs, this song that was the first one I covered on my youtube channel. Out of all my Ukulele artists, I must say your my no. 1. I will see you next time you come to Australia... 🤗

[@summermcpherson8209]

OMG that high note at 4:18! Chills!

[@kristydiazrivera2375]

This is such a beautiful song and you covered it beautifully. 👏👏👏

[@crystalking1317]

Love your videos! They’ve gotten me back to playing the ukulele.

[@anitathompson6571]

I’ve been playing my uke for 3 months now and I’m becoming a Patreon as you are so instrumental in my progress (no pun intended). Thank you so much for what you do. I retired from an I.T. career and it took two-plus years to find a hobby. Ukulele is a wonderful find. My octogenarian parents love for me to bring it to their place to play and ask each time if I’ve brought it. 😊

[@user-nt1cj9dk3h]

Thank you so much for sharing and teaching this song! I enjoy it so much, can't believe my fingers are doing that!

[@markgarvey6330]

beautifully done. Thank you.

[@wearetheworld1945]
