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 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,

There's no end?

While she lays crying, i fumble with a melody or two

Than i'm torn between the things that i should do

And she says to make 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 will find a way, find a way...

While she lays… while she waits for me!
