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, 
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


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 for me!
