Lyrics:

If l was a bird and you was a fish

what would we do, l guess we'd wish

for re-incarnation, re-incarnation

wouldn't it be a sensation
to come back too, like reincarnation

If l was a tree and you was a flower

what would we do, l guess we'd wait for the power

of re-incarnation, re-incarnation,

wouldn't it be a sensation

to come back too, like reincarnation

l love you, and don't you know l always will

you're a girl, l'm a boy,

but suppose you were a rose

and l was a whip-poor-will

If l was a bird and you was a fish

what would we do, l guess we'd wish

for re-incarnation, re-incarnation

wouldn't it be a sensation

to come back too, like reincarnation

If l was a tree and you was a flower

what would we do, l guess we'd wait for the power

of re-incarnation, re-incarnation,

wouldn't it be a sensation

to come back too, like reincarnation

l love you, and don't you know l always will

you're a girl, l'm a boy,

but suppose you were a rose

and l was a whip-poor-will
