If l was a bird and you was a fish
what would we do, l guess we`d wish
for re-incarnation, re-incarnation
wouldn`t it be a sensation
to come back too, like reincarnation
If l was a tree and you was a flower
what would we do, l guess we`d wait for the power
of re-incarnation, re-incarnation,
wouldn`t it be a sensation
to come back too, like reincarnation
l love you, and don`t you know l always will
you`re a girl, l`m a boy,
but suppose you were a rose
and l was a whip-poor-will
