He was a quiet kid on a school bus
Headed for home
To hide in his room
And play his guitar alone
There on the edge of his little bed he'd
Sit and he'd play
And when it got late
There was a song he sang

Hey, I really think
Maybe I could change the world
It's a funny thing
But I might give it a whirl
I could start today
I know right where to begin
I don't know everything
But I got a little faith
And I heard that's all
Heard that's all it takes
Till tomorrow when you can start again

She was a flower blooming in winter
Out in the dark
Out in the garden
She didn't need the rain
He fell in love
And told her because the petals he saw
But most of all
He loved the song she sang

Hey, I really think
Maybe I could change the world
It's a funny thing
But I might give it a whirl
I could start today
I know right where to begin
Don't know everything
But I got a little faith
And I heard that's all
Heard that's all it takes
Till tomorrow when you can start again

It'd be nice to start again
It'd be nice to start again
It'd be nice to start again

He'd move away and
She'd choose to stay there
They'd grow apart
But when it got hard
They knew the song to sing

Hey, I really think
Maybe I could change the world
Thats a funny thing
But I might give it a whirl
I could start today
I know right where to begin
I don't know everything
But I got a little faith
And I heard that's all
Heard that's all it takes
Till tomorrow when you can start again
