Sally, What can I say about you
|
That would be true without you,
|
With your ribbons hanging rainbows in your hand?
|
|
You know he's young and still unproven
|
And to himself unspoken
|
And though his roads like thieves appear,
|
Lead him to think he's left what's near,
|
He's gonna look for you to be who you are.
|
|
Your friends are telling you to leave him,
|
As though they really knew him,
|
While they rob you with their honor and your name.
|
|
But you won't give up now with all your pure love,
|
Give up with all your strong love.
|
He's gonna know when he's just as far as any body goes
|
And he'll look for you to be who you are.
|
|
Sometimes my thinking gets so heavy,
|
I feel I stand too closely.
|
And it's so useless, somehow I should run away.
|
But that's not the truth no matter what is,
|
No matter who they say is
|
It's you and you alone can be sure that you're not wrong
|
You've got all you need to be who you are.
