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 touch her face across the silver light
I see her dreams that drift up to the sky
And she wakes up to my kiss
And I say it?s 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 songs,
But I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
Forever in my heart she will remain
And I hope and pray, I will find away, find away
While she lays waiting
I ask myself why do I hurt her so
What calls me on along this lonely road
Why don?t I turn around and head back home
Where I belong
While she lays crying
For she knows how my heart is ripped in two
I?m tom between the things that I should do
She deserves it all and I?d give it if I could
God, her love is true
[Chorus]
While she lays sleeping
While she lays sleeping for me

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

Chorus
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, 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 her love is true.

Chorus
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, while she waits... while she waits for me

While she lays sleeping, I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes all the nights can be so long
And its 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, Ill 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, and theres no end
While she lays crying, I fumble with a melody or two
And Im torn between the things that I should do
And she says to wake her up when I am through,
God her love is true...

And she believes in me, Ill 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, while she waits... while she waits for me!

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 touch her face across the silver light
I see her dreams that drift up to the sky
And she wakes up to my kiss
And I say it?s 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 songs,
But I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
Forever in my heart she will remain
And I hope and pray, I will find away, find away
While she lays waiting
I ask myself why do I hurt her so
What calls me on along this lonely road
Why don?t I turn around and head back home

While she lays crying
For she knows how my heart is ripped in two
I?m tom between the things that I should do

And she says to wake her up when I am through
Oh

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 could change the world
With my little songs
I was wrong
