Make the Thought Count

If I came to you with a song in my heart, And I shared it with you, would you sing it with me? The world won't care if we don't get it right. Let's make the thought count, with a little delight. If I had an old book that had yellowed with age, I could read it to you using old-fashioned words. The world won't care if we don't get it right. Let's make the thought count, with a little delight. I'll write you a letter and send it with postage. And in it I'll tell you how my thoughts have been shaping. The world won't care if we don't get it right. Let's make the thought count, with a little delight. We'll listen to the radio and hear what they're saying of extraordinary people and the things that they've seen. The world won't care if we don't get it right. Let's make the thought count, with a little delight.
