Little lamb, please understand I am, I am what I am You are, you are what you are We are, we are shining stars Little lamb of a tree Shading what lies under thee I know, I know what you are You are from the same bright star Fast away the old year passes Burn away eyelids and lashes Fast away the old year passes Burn away, ashes to ashes I had a friend, you got a foe In between, door to door I've got a friend, you've got a foe I've got a friend named you I've got a friend named you Little lamb, please understand You are, you are what I am I am, I am what you are We are, we are shining stars
