Your Song 
# It may be quite * but
Now that it's done
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   #
Sat on the roof
and I kicked off the moss⁸
well , some of these verses
well they they got me quite cross
but the sun's been 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 things is
what I really mean
yours are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
（singing Opera in Italian）
And you can tell  everybody
This is your song
