In a World of My Own

Monday, January 19, 2009



This weekend I finally figured out what to do with my lucite flowers (a dilemma that began early last summer) and after finishing my projects I was left with a happy feeling that can best be expressed in the form of a song: 'In a World of My Own', written by Bob Hilliard and Sammy Fain (1951):

Dinah reminds me of George and the song brings back memories of my sister and I listening to the vinyl soundtrack in Spanish when we were kids.



Sing-a-long in English:

'Cats and rabbits
Would reside in fancy little houses
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
In a world of my own

All the flowers
Would have very extra special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When I'm lonely in a world of my own

There'd be new birds
Lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds
Within that world of my own

I could listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
Because my world would be a wonderland.'
