I looked out the window when I was five
And the leaves were rustling
And the birds were singing
And the cars passed zooming
And the people whistling
I was fascinated
As I watched

If I closed my eyes I would still know
That the world kept turning
That the wind kept whistling
That the dogs kept barking
And the rain kept falling
That the clouds were high up
In the sky

And the beautiful thing, my friend
Oh how can I explain?
The most beautiful thing of all
Is that none of it was mine

None of it was mine
No matter how hard I tried to catch it
None of it was mine, or yours
'Cause nothing belongs to us

How many times have I pressed record
How many pages
Have my eyes swallowed whole
The skins, the lights, the words, the tears
How many have been lost
First we hold on and then we let go

And the centuries come and the centuries go
The stones are falling from your walls
And the seas are coming to drown us all
So you can keep preaching inside your church
And you can keep crawling
back in your tomb
But honey the tapes are lost
And the books are gone in the storms

And the beautiful thing, my friend
Oh how can I explain
The most beautiful thing of all
Is that none of it was mine

None of it was mine
No matter how hard I tried to catch it
None of it was mine, or yours
'Cause nothing belongs to us

None of it was mine
No matter how much I suffered for it
Not one single thing out there or in here
Is mine or yours
'Cause nothing belongs to us
Nothing belongs to me
Nothing belongs to anyone at all
