You know, it's afternoon Yeah, yeah And there's the moon, So pale And all the trees are whisperin' and the elves are whisperin' to me, That's right I am, I am How they whisper so nice I am, I am They whisper to me I am, I am They whisper to me I am, I am Doo-pop doo-pop da-tommy-too-pop Doo-pop doo-pop da-tommy-too-pop I am, I am The wind cries I am, I am For you see, it's afternoon Yeah, yeah There's the moon, it's so pale All the plants whisper, the lake and the lilies, they whisper a song to me It sounds like this I am, I am That's what it sounds like I am, I am I am, I am I am, I am Doo-pop doo-pop da-tommy-too-pop Doo-pop doo-pop da-tommy-too-pop Doo-pop doo-pop da-tommy-too-pop Doo-pop doo-pop da-tommy-too-pop I am, I am I am, I am I am, I am I am, I am Two more times...
