This man was quite ambitious
In a world that is so vicious
To us all
I said hi
As he replied
He said listen to these words that I have lived by my whole life
You're only as tall
As your heart will let you be
And you're only as small
As the world will make you seem
And when the going gets rough
And you feel like you may fall
Just look on the bright side
You're roughly six feet tall
I met a man of twelve feet tall
He towered like a giant
In a world that was defiant
Of his height
I said hi
As he replied
He said listen to these words
That I have dreaded my whole life
You're only as tall
As your heart will let you be
And you're only as small
As the world will make you seem
And when the going gets rough
And you feel like you may fall
Just look on the bright side
You're roughly six feet tall
I am a man of six feet tall
Just looking for some answers
In a world that answers none of them at all
I'll say hi
But not reply to the letters
That you write because
I found some peace of mind
Cause I'm only as tall
As my heart will let me be
And I'm only as small as the world will make me seem
And when the going gets rough
And I feel like I may fall
I'll look on the bright side
I'm roughly six feet tall.
I met a man of two feet tall This man was quite ambitious In a world that is so vicious To us all I said hi As he replied He said listen to these words that I have lived by my whole life You're only as tall As your heart will let you be And you're only as small As the world will make you seem And when the going gets rough And you feel like you may fall Just look on the bright side You're roughly six feet tall I met a man of twelve feet tall He towered like a giant In a world that was defiant Of his height I said hi As he replied He said listen to these words That I have dreaded my whole life You're only as tall As your heart will let you be And you're only as small As the world will make you seem And when the going gets rough And you feel like you may fall Just look on the bright side You're roughly six feet tall I am a man of six feet tall Just looking for some answers In a world that answers none of them at all I'll say hi But not reply to the letters That you write because I found some peace of mind Cause I'm only as tall As my heart will let me be And I'm only as small as the world will make me seem And when the going gets rough And I feel like I may fall I'll look on the bright side I'm roughly six feet tall.
