She is a window and she is an arrow

She's a line in the sand

She is the ocean that breathless commotion

That carries you far from dry land

She is the sunlight, that wicked blue moonlight

The star to my wandering back

And she is the melody to my sad symphony

She's the way through the dark

And she'll tip you over and she'll drag you under

And she sing that love is a fire

Well she is a mystery, my heart's wounded history

And she's the hardest goodbye

She is the lesson that I learned the hard way

She's a long distance call

She is a casualty of my uncertainty

She's a brick wall

She's an obsession and she's an addiction

That I thought I had beat

She's a confession and she's a temptation

That walks by on the street

And she is my skin, holding my blood in

Covering my bones

And she is my meaning, the crutch I've been leaning on

She is my heart

She is a lifetime of strangers and friends

I know someday she'll stay by my side

She is a lifetime of strangers and friends

I know someday she'll stay by my side

She is a lifetime of strangers and friends

I know someday she'll stay by my side
