She Believes In Me

While she lays sleeping

I stay out late at night and play my songs

And sometimes, oh, the night 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 a light

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

And she has faith in me

And so I'll go on trying faithfully

And who knows, maybe on some special night

If my song is right, I will 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

And I'm torn between the things that I should do

And she says to wake her up when I am through

God, our 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

And she has faith in me

And so I'll 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

While she waits for me
