when I smile at people
Makes me think about when I'm getting older
What I'll do and won't do to be honest
Hope I wake up early doin' good things
And wait for every bus to come
And when it comes I hope there are many kids on it
That I greet every single one by name
And then I go to that small neighborhood park
Sittin' on a bench feedin' the birds
And then I leave and go around the city to greet others
Saying goodbye all nice
Going from block to block street to street
Cube by cube
Smiling at everyone on foot and even by car
Because smiling at people
So that the smile lasts
In their memory as much as
As me
As me
As me
Lord
Being
Lord
Boys and girls clap their hands for me
In applause birds sing
And every single person laments
For a spiritual regret
Boys and girls clap their hands for me
In applause birds sing
And every single person laments
For a spiritual regret
Boys and girls clap their hands for me
In applause birds sing
And every single person laments
For a spiritual regret
What I'll do and won't do to be honest
Hope I wake up early doin' good things
And wait for every bus to come
And when it comes I hope there are many kids on it
That I greet every single one by name
And then I go to that small neighborhood park
Sittin' on a bench feedin' the birds
And then I leave and go around the city to greet others
Saying goodbye all nice
Going from block to block street to street
Cube by cube
Smiling at everyone on foot and even by car
Because smiling at people
So that the smile lasts
In their memory as much as
As me
As me
As me
Lord
Being
Lord
Boys and girls clap their hands for me
In applause birds sing
And every single person laments
For a spiritual regret
Boys and girls clap their hands for me
In applause birds sing
And every single person laments
For a spiritual regret
Boys and girls clap their hands for me
In applause birds sing
And every single person laments
For a spiritual regret
