WHILE SHE LAYS SLEEPIN'
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 DREAMIN'
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 ALRIGHT
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
TRYIN' FAITHFULLY
AND WHO KNOWS, MAYBE
ON SOME SPECIAL NIGHT
IF MY SONG IS RIGHT
I WILL FIND A WAY
TO FIND A WAY
WHILE SHE LAYS WAITIN'
I STUMBLE TO THE KITCHEN
FOR A BITE
THEN I SEE MY OLD GUITAR
IN THE NIGHT
JUST WAITIN' FOR ME
LIKE A SECRET FRIEND
AND THERE'S NO END
WHILE SHE LAYS CRYIN'
I FUMBLE WITH
A MELODY OR TWO
THEN I'M TORN
BETWEEN THE THINGS
THAT I... SHOULD DO
AND SHE SAYS TO WAKE HER UP
WHEN I AM THROUGH
Spoken...
GOD, HER LOVE IS TRUE
Resume Singing...
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
TRYIN' FAITHFULLY
AND WHO KNOWS, MAYBE
ON SOME SPECIAL NIGHT
IF MY SONG IS RIGHT
I WILL FIND A WAY
WHILE SHE WAITS
WHILE SHE WAITS FOR ME...
