In A World Of My Own
Kathryn Beaumont Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Would reside in fancy little houses
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
In a world of my own
All the flowers
Would have very extra-special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
There'd be new birds
Lots of nice and friendly
How-de-do do birds
Everyone would have
A dozen blue birds
Within that world of my own
I could listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
Because my world would be a wonderland

Cats and rabbits
In my alternate reality, both felines and rodents
Would reside in fancy little houses
Would live in exquisite abodes
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
Clad in accessories even humans don't don at times
In a world of my own
In my own fantasy world where everything goes
All the flowers
Every single bloom
Would have very extra-special powers
All would possess unique and supernatural capabilities
They would sit and talk to me for hours
They'd converse with me at length
When I'm lonely in a world of my own
During those lonely moments in this world I call mine
There'd be new birds
Novel avian species
Lots of nice and friendly
Many kind and cordial ones
How-de-do do birds
Greeting me cordially
Everyone would have
Every individual would own
A dozen blue birds
A group of 12 blue members of the Aves species
Within that world of my own
Exists only in my creative universe
I could listen to a babbling brook
I’d listen intently to the flow of the stream
And hear a song that I could understand
Comprehending the melody of the babbling brook
I keep wishing it could be that way
I constantly imagine if such a world is possible
Because my world would be a wonderland
Indeed, such a world would be a fascinating realm to live in
