Song: Upside down/Shawn the sheep

The hitch-hiker -Key


It WAS a dark and rainy evening.
Mr Soames WAS on his way home.
Suddenly he SAW a girl.
He STOPPED his car.
He TOOK the girl home.
He DROVE to the house.
A woman SAID,
“My daughter DIED five years ago.”
Mr Soames WAS confused.
He WENT to his car.
The car WAS empty and the girl WAS gone.




Who's to say
What's impossible
Well, they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There's no stopping curiosity

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs
I don't want this feeling to go away

Who's to say
I can't do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along I begin to find
Things aren't always just what they seem

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs
This world keeps spinning and there's no time to waste
Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round and

Upside down
Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found
I don't want this feeling to go away

Please don't go away
Please don't go away
Please don't go away
Is this how it's supposed to be
Is this how it's supposed to be
