While she lays sleeping
I stay out late at night and play my songs
and sometimes, oh, the nights can be so long
and it's good when I finally make it home all alone.
While she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the light
and quietly she says, How
was
your
night?
and I come to her and say, It
was
all
right.
And I hold her tight.
And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday, if she was my girl
I could change the world
with my little songs...
I was wrong.
But she has faith in me
and so I go on trying faithfully
and who knows, maybe on some special night
If my song is right
I will find a way, find a way.
While she lays waiting
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite,
Then I see my old guitar in the night
just waiting for me like a secret friend
and there's no end.
While she lays crying
I fumble with a melody or two
and I'm torn between the things that I should do
then she says to wake her up when I am through.
God, her love is true.
And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday, if she was my girl
I could change the world
with my little songs...
I was wrong.
But she has faith in me
and so I go on trying faithfully
and who knows, maybe on some special night
If my song is right
I will find a way
While she lays, while she waits for me.
