English text
I know a place where the wild things grow
I know a place where the wild things grow
There's an apple tree
From a core
That someone threw away
The fruit is sweet
So sweet
And no-one knows but me
I know a place where the wild things live
I know a place where the wild things live
Down on Puddle alley, where the little river flows
And a mother duck lives With her baby ducklings,
Soft and grey
So quiet
No-one knows but me
I climb along the bank
And sit so quietly
That no-one knows I'm there
I'm hidden safe away
I see the world go by
And no-one knows I'm there
Hidden in my safe and secret magic world
I know a place where the magic lies
I know a place where the magic lies
A world so far away
And still so close to home
I never feel alone
I never am alone
In my secret place
Where the wild things grow
