Verse 1:
The old man was walking
He was clinging onto his crouches
As if without them
The world would swallow him whole
And my heart got broken
And my soul got shaken
The moment the old man
Gave me a piece of his soul
Chorus
And without saying a word
He started to speak and I
Could do nothing but listen
As he said:
"My child, if I could teach you one thing
I would teach you to sing
I would show you how much joy a melody brings
For it takes away your sadness, it takes away your sorrow
Here let me lend you my tune cause I won't need it tomorrow
Verse 2:
I drove past a woman today
that walked on the side of the road
Her shoulders were hanging
And her feet were dragging
And I knew she was carrying a load
Chorus:
As I stopped she started to speak
And I could do nothing but listen
As she said:
My child, if I could show you just one little thing
I would show you laughter and the joy it brings
She took my hand and wished me the best
As she made her journey to the eternal rest
Verse 3:
As I sat watching the last of this day
A little child came by that had something to say
I tried to send him on his way
But he was there to stay
Chorus:
He said:
I might just be a child
But I have a secret to share
Why don't you close your eyes
And let me take you there
1,2,3 we are all we can be
As you and I we sit in a tree
Life will never be more life will never be less
But if there's a choice let it be less
Cause less is less of a mess ...
