Our conversation was short and sweet It nearly swept me off my feet And I'm back in the rain Oh, and you are on dry land You made it there somehow You're a big girl now Bird on the horizon, sitting on a fence He's singing his song for me at his own expense And I'm just like that bird Oh, singing just for you I hope that you can hear Hear me singing through these tears Love is so simple, to quote a phrase You've known it all the time, I'm learning it these days And I know where I can find you Oh, in somebody's room It's a price I have to pay You're a big girl all the way Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast Oh but what a shame, that all we've shared can't last I can change I swear Oh, see what you can do I can make it through You can make it too A change in the weather is known to be extreme But it ain't like changing horses in midstream I'm going out of my mind Oh, with a pain that stops and starts Like a corkscrew to the heart Ever since we've been apart
