Someone Special

I may one day climb a mountain

I may one day just count my toes

I might hammer a nail

I might work for health care

maybe five days telling jokes

[chorus]

I'm gonna be someone special someday

because I'm already someone special today

I'm gonna be someone special

because I'm already someone special today

I may be painting pictures on a canvas in Taiwan

or maybe up the stairs and down the hall on my bedroom wall

I like colours

Blue and Purple and Green

[chorus]

There's times I like to count to ten — one, two, three, four, five, ten

I think I'm old enough to write with a pen

I'm gonna run and maybe fall

but that's OK because I'm OK and I'm ready to try it all

[instrumental]

Somewhere in the sky that's high

or deep below the sea,

if I can stretch my arms enough

I know that I can reach

I'm gonna be someone special

because I'm already someone...

special today

Yay.
