It's a funny old world

You can laugh in a funny old world

Slip and sliding, duck and diving

Open wide and let it in

On a road some place

Live your life on a road some place

Pack your dreams and a needle and thread

Leave yourself like an unmade bed



One day you get to thinking

One day you get to feel the sun all around the world

And one day you get the picture

One day you realise and run all the way home



Maybe over that hill

Few steps more and it's over that hill

Slip and sliding, tumble and climbing

Picking up some diamonds and some rocks on your way

It'll be alright

Just one more it'll be alright

Stack them up where the garden grows

Fill your cup 'til it overflows



One day you get to thinking

One day you get to feel the sun all around the world



Hold you close, breath you in

Chase yourself, hear you singing

Watch you grow bigger than you know



One day you get to thinking

One day you get to feel the sun all around the world

And one day you get the picture

One day you realise and run all the way home
