Alone until my eighteenth year
|
We met four springs ago
|
She was shy and had a fear
|
Of things she did not know
|
But we got it on together
|
In such a super way
|
We held each other close at night
|
And traded dreams each day
|
|
And she said,
|
Rocky, I've never been in love before
|
Don't know if I can do it
|
But if you let me lean on you
|
Take my hand, I might get through it (through it)
|
I said, Baby, oh sweet baby
|
It's love that sets us free
|
And God knows if the world should end
|
Your love is safe with me
|
|
We found an old gray house
|
And you would not believe the way
|
We worked at night to fix it up
|
Took classes in the day
|
Paintin' walls and sippin' wine
|
Sleepin' on the floor
|
With so much love for just two
|
Soon we found there'd be one more
|
|
And she said,
|
Rocky, I've never had a baby before
|
Don't know if I can do it
|
But if you let me lean on you
|
Take my hand, I might get through it (through it)
|
I said, Baby, oh sweet baby
|
It's love that sets us free
|
And God knows if the world should end
|
Your love is safe with me
|
|
We had lots of problems then but
|
We had lots of fun
|
Like the crazy party
|
When our baby girl turned one
|
I was proud and satisfied
|
Life had so much to give
|
'Till the day they told me
|
That she didn't have long to live
|
|
She said,
|
Rocky, I've never had to die before
|
Don't know if I can do it...
|
|
Now it's back to two again
|
The little girl and I
|
Who looks so much like her sweet mother
|
Sometimes it makes me cry
|
I sleep alone at nights again
|
I walk alone each day
|
And sometimes when I'm about to give in
|
I hear her sweet voice say, to me
|
|
Rocky, you know you've been alone before
|
You know that you can do it
|
But if you'd like to lean on me
|
Take my hand, I'll help you through it (through it)
|
I said, Baby, oh sweet baby
|
It's love that sets us free
|
And I told you when the world would end
|
Your love was safe with me
|
|
She said,
|
Rocky, you know you've been alone before
|
You know that you can do it
|
But if you'd like to lean on me...
