If I were some poetic genius
sitting on the veranda of the one I love
in the morning when the stars
just won't fade out yet
I think I'd write a little haiku
I would write a little haiku
I think I'd write a little haiku for you
(Chorus:)
I'd post it on the moon some night
when it's dark enough
for you to see it up above
maybe you'd just sit back and smile at
how much a silly little human can love
Instrumental
If I were some nomadic sailor
and I had to leave you on the shore
I have a feeling my heart wouldn't stop aching
so I'd write you a million letters
I would write a million letters
you would get a million letters or more
I'd post them on the moon some night
when it's dark enough
maybe you'd just sit back and smile at
how much a silly little human can love
(Chorus:)
I'd post them on the moon some night
when it's dark enough
for you to see them up above
maybe you'd just sit back and smile
at how much a silly little human can
how much a silly little human can love
