I want you to read my name,
In your history books.
I want you to hear my words,
sung all over the world.

And I'll let you in
On my little secret.
Oh I'll let you in
To my little world.

And if you listen close:
You can hear my heart,
You can hear how it beats.

And it beats in time.
Oh it beats in time with:
The tick of the clock,
And the souls of my shoes
As they travel the road,
Oh as I travel my never-ending road.
And I'll let you in

And I want you to read my name,
In your history books.
Oh I want you to hear my words,
sung all over the world.

And I'll let you in
On my little story.
Oh I'll let you in
To my little life.

Come and listen close,
And hear my heart.
Maybe you'll hear it beating
To the sound of my world
And maybe,
Just maybe:
I'll let you in.
