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
I am, I am
I am, I am
