while she lays sleeping i stay out late at night and play my songs
and sometimes all 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 can find a way find a way
while she lays waiting i stumble to the kitchen for a bite
then i see my old 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
and 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 can find a way while she waits while she waits for me
