Bobby Darin
If I Were a Carpenter
I have left the seed of life
From South Hampton to Singapore
And if tomorrow morning comes
I guess Iââ¬â¢ll leave some more.
Iââ¬â¢m a captain without an ocean
And a lover without emotion
And a monk free of devotion
But I am, most of all, I am.
I have worn the countryââ¬â¢s colors
In a thousand different ways
I have won the game of life
Upon the table which it plays.
Iââ¬â¢m a sun without a setting
And a tear without regretting
Iââ¬â¢m a mind full of forgetting
But I am, most of all, I am.
Forgive me while I kiss away
This thought thatââ¬â¢s in my head
But itââ¬â¢s the only proof I have
That this old man ainââ¬â¢t dead.
Iââ¬â¢m a robin without its wings
And a song nobody sings
To the ivy no one clings
But I am, most of all, I am.
Yes I am, most of all, I am.
