I, my, mine, me

säv. & san. Tuomas Kannisto

I, my, mine, me

I lie under a pine tree

You, your, yours, you

I must learn all these for good


he, his, his, him 

I’m not thinking of quitting

she, her, hers, her

I learn this by heart, yes sir


And soon I see how everything 

is turning clearer as I sing

smiling 


it, its, its, it

I learn my words bit by bit

we, our, ours, us

If I don’t rehearse, who does?


You, your, yours, you

These four words I already knew

They, their, theirs, them

I practise this again and again.


And soon I see how everything

is turning clearer as I sing

smiling
