Would you mind sitting
Next to a silly old fool
It’s just I tired of wasting my hours
Talking to trees and watching flowers grow
Watching birds chasing bees
Little boys scraping knees
Even my tears have all dried
Can I sit by your side
CHORUS:
Don’t misunderstand me
I’m just an old man with no place to go
And if you oblige me and sit here beside me
I’ll tell you a story a beautiful story
That you might not know
Please don’t go
Pardon me mister tree
I hope I didn’t offend you before
You are my friend
But I wanted much more
But now I’m back once again
Like always before
Watching birds chasing bees
Little boys scraping knees
Even my tears have all dried
Can I sit by your side
Chorus
