Lyrics: |
I revel in days of abiding great joy Bestowed upon me by that one little boy Well it's true that it smarts when he shouts in my ears But the silence hurt nore before he was here Well he laughs til he cries as we flail on the floor And he pleads with me "Stop!" tought he knows there'll be more With an innocent whimsy he hasn't lost yet Then he leads me ti wimsy I'll never forget When he says "Now dady, you tickle yourself" And I says "If I could I'd get ti it But it only tickles when you do it" Now That my bonnie boy has grown inte a man I am left all alone here with these idle hands So they reach up to You who've been Father to me And they're craving the joy that Your touch always means A say this in not the most reverent terms And pray You won't misconstrue it But it only tickles when you do it ....and when the Lord speaks.... : "I am God, I am happy in heavens above I've had eons and ages of Myself to love Still I found it amsuing to see Adam come And the earth did seem greener, and brighter the sun Well I may try to hide this from even Myself But clearly you always knew it That it only tickles when you do it Yes it only tickles when you do it" |
