On a round-about I'm turning on to you
Don't you love the way we're turning, yes you do
Little schools of Hummingbirds are streaming by
While we're merging with the colour of the sky

Big yellow Sun
You're the One
Here's our souls
Heal them, Heal them
Beautiful Girl
You're the World
I'm in you
Breathing, Breathing
Love-me-do

Near the Entrance of the Airport as you see
There's an Ice Cream man who's selling sweets for free (L S D)
You might watch descending Rockets from the Moon
While we're taking off with 99 balloons
(Bless our souls)

Big yellow Sun
You're the One
Here's our souls
Heal them, Heal them
Beautiful Girl
You're the World
I'm in you
Breathing, Breathing
Love-me-do
