06 Your Song
Alessandro Safina; Ewan McGregor Lyrics

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
This feeling of gratitude and love is unusual and unexpected.

I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I can't hide my true feelings and emotions easily.

I don't have much money but boy if I did
If I had more money, I would use it to create a better life for us both.

I'd buy a big house where we both could live
I would invest in a large, comfortable home for us to live in together.

If I was a sculptor but then again no
Although I don't have artistic talent like a sculptor, I still want to give you something special.

Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
Even if I were a magician or a chemist, I wouldn't be able to create something as powerful as this song for you.

Oh I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
This song is not a grand gesture or extravagant gift, but it comes from the heart and is the best I can offer.

My gift is my song
I may not have much, but my song is the best way I can express my love and gratitude for you.

And this one's for you
This song is specifically dedicated to you and all that you mean to me.

And you can tell everybody this is your song
I don't mind if you share this song with other people, as long as you know it was created especially for you.

It may be quite simple but now that it's done
Although this song is simple, it still carries a lot of meaning and emotion now that it's complete.

I hope you don't mind
I don't want to offend or upset you in any way with this song.

That I put down in words
I wrote down my feelings in this song to better express them to you.

How wonderful life is while you're in the world
My life is enriched and wonderful because of you and your presence in it.

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
I took some time to reflect and think about my feelings for you while sitting on the roof and relaxing.

Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
Some of the lyrics I wrote were frustrating and difficult to come up with.

But the sun's been quite kind
The weather has been nice and warm, which helped me feel more positive and inspired while writing this song.

While I wrote this song
During the process of creating this song, my thoughts and emotions were solely focused on you and our relationship.

It's for people like you that keep it turned on
The song is intended for people like you, who keep my love and passion for life alive.

So excuse me forgetting
Please forgive me for forgetting some of the small details about you or our relationship.

But these things I do
I have not intentionally forgotten anything, but my memory isn't perfect.

You see I've forgotten
I realize that there are some little details about you or our relationship that I may have forgotten over time.

If they're green or they're blue
I may not remember the color of your eyes, but I still hold your beauty and essence in my heart.

Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Despite any small errors I may have made, what I really mean is that I love and appreciate you more than anything else in the world.

Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
Your eyes are one of the many things I find most beautiful and captivating about you.

And you can tell everybody this is your song
You can share this song with whomever you choose, as it was created solely for you.

It may be quite simple but
Although this song is not a grandiose or complicated pronouncement of love, it is still filled with sincere meaning and feeling.

Now that it's done
Now that the song is completed, I hope you feel appreciated and loved for all that you are to me.

I hope you don't mind
I hope you are not offended or upset in any way by this song.

That I put down in words
I wanted to express my love and admiration for you through the medium of song, and these are the words that came to me.

How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Your presence in my life brings so much joy and wonder, and I am so grateful to share my life with you.
