I actually first learnt this
song in - I think -
elementary school. I know
for a fact that I was very
young when I did... Then I
did piano for x years and
never got round to it, now
I'm going to try and mash it
up on the guitar :)
The words are by Eleanor
Farjeon, who (I beleieve)
was American? Not sure on
that last part.
This song is actually a Religious Hymn. This is the only song that Cat Stevens never wrote himself. He was in a book store one day trying to figure out the meaning of life and started looking through a Hymn book and decided he liked the song and thus recorded it. Just a bit of trivia for all you Cat Stevens fans, Wayne
