What a big world and I'm glad to be in it
We've got a purpose and I'm starting to get it
And I won't stop until I'm gone
And I won't change what I'm doing till I'm done
I've got time and I plan to go with it
Forget about the money 'cause I don't get it
And I know I'll come again
Yeah I know but until then
If you see me forgetting
Forget who I am (pinch me!)
Just try to remind me
Put up your hands in the stands
If you see me crying, if you see me alone
Just try to stay by me and keep singing along
I appreciate the chance of living
I realize that it's all about giving
I will stand in the sunshine
Cause I know the sun is not mine
I'm tied in to the dirt and the land
The wind, and the trees, and the waves and the sand
And I know I'll come again
Yeah I know but untill then
If you see me forgetting
Forget who I am
Just try to remind me
And put up your hands in the stands
If you see me crying, if you see me alone
When I stop singing, just keep singing along
So I can hear your song
So if I slip, get lost upon de trip
And if I lose a grip on reality, beg you do not make me drift
It’s not as if, because I have a gift,
That me nah could no take some good advice
And you say word, I’ll take a tip
Like maybe this, one too many spliffs, one too many sips
Not enough sleep and too much ‘milla skip
Some time to escape, everyone need a lift
Don’t watch no face
If you see me forgetting (pinch me, pinch me!)
Forget who I am
Just try to remind me
And put up your hands in the stands
If you see me crying, if you see me alone
When I stop singing, just keep singing alone
So I can hear your song
