CLÁSSICOS PARA A VIDA ETERNA

YOUR SONG* (1976) AL JARREAU

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

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
