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
