and I [F]wonder what it [C]means to [G]be
There's a [C]tall, [F]tall [C]tree, [C]standing [F]be[C]hind me
and there's [F]green, green grass [C]growing be[G]side me
[G]Could I [C]see the [F]one that is The [G]One in every[C]thing
[G]Might I [C]see the [F]one that is The [G]One in [C]me
There's a bumble bee, flying free
and there's a little beetle crawling by happily
There's all this life, livin' with me
and I wonder why it is that I am me
There's a robin in a tree, near by me
and it's singing a sweet, sweet, sweet melody
There's so much livin', and so much dying
and I'm asking why why why why
Could I know the one that is The One in all
May I know the one that is The One in me
I see life, all around me
and I wonder what it means to be free
There's a seagull by the sea, and an eagle in a tree
and it occurs to me perhaps they are free
Who are you, and who am I
what is the difference and why
It is wondrous, beautiful and glorious
but I keep asking why, why why why
Could I be the one that is The One in all
May I be the one that is The One in me
