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 fin'ly make it home, all alone
While she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the light
Then 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 some day
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
Then 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 some day
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 waits
for me
While she waits
for me
for me
