[Verse 1]
DN.C.
There was a wayward lad, stepped out one morning
DN.C.
The ground to be his bed, the sky his awning

A blue Aneon lamp in a midnight country Dfield
Cows surround so you lean on, lean Gon
So Amuch your hugs become hold onsD
[Chorus 1]
DOh Dsus2these three D5worn words
Oh oh-oh-oh, that we Emwhisper
Like the rubbing Ahands of A/Gtourists in VeF#mrona
N.C. (Riff-1)
I just want to love you in my own language
