Well she smiles just like a river
|
Rolling softly to the sea.
|
When she blows away my problems
|
She helps to take, take a little weight off me.
|
|
When she's happy, I'm in heaven.
|
If she's down, she'll never say.
|
'Cause she knows I'm treading water.
|
Guess she feels I'm better off that way.
|
|
But when sadness overcomes me; I'm blinded by the night,
|
She takes my hand and leads me to the light.
|
And she whispers in the morning; she knows the words to say
|
To keep me looking forward to the new day.
|
|
So I try just to be her lover
|
And I hope she understands
|
When I hurt her or make her crazy
|
That I'm just an ordinary man.
|
|
Yeah she smiles just like a river
|
Flowing softly to the sea.
|
When she blows away my problems
|
She helps to take a little weight off me.
