I rode my bicycle past your window last nightI roller skated to your door at daylight
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dryAnd them good old boys were drinking whiskey 'n rye
I, I'm so in love with youWhatever you want to do is alright with me'Cause you make me feel so brand newAnd I want to spend my life with you
No, I can't forget this eveningOr your face as you were leavingBut I guess that's just the way the story goesYou always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
I've been to Hollywood, I've been to RedwoodI crossed the ocean for a heart of goldI've been in my mind, it's such a fine line
On the first part of the journeyI was looking at all the lifeThere were plants and birds and rocks and thingsThere was sand and hills and rings
I thought the sun rose in your eyesAnd the moon and the starsWere the gifts you gaveTo the dark, and the endless skies
I'd be in trouble if you left me now'Cause I don't know where to look for loveI just don't know how
Oh, mmm..I know a placeAin't nobody cryin', ain't nobody worriedAin't no smilin' faces, mmm, naw, naw
Who can take a sunrise? (Who can take a sunrise?)Sprinkle it with dew (Sprinkle it with dew)
Me and you are subject toThe blues now and thenBut when you take the bluesAnd make a songYou sing 'em out again
Sometimes in our lives, we all have painWe all have sorrowBut if we are wiseWe know that there's always tomorrow
In a little while from nowIf I'm not feeling any less sourI promised myself to treat myselfAnd visit a nearby tower
There's a port on a western bayAnd it serves a hundred ships a dayLonely sailors pass the time awayAnd talk about their homes
And now a child can understandThat this is the law of all the landAll the land
Girl, you're getting that look in your eyesAnd it's starting to worry meI ain't ready for no family tiesNobody's gonna hurry me
With a friend to call my ownI'll never be aloneAnd you my friend will seeYou've got a friend in me
When I was a little bitty boyMy grandmother bought me a cute little toy
I can see all obstacles in my wayGone are the dark clouds that had me blindIt's going to be a bright, bright sun shiny day
It was the third of SeptemberThat day I'll always remember, yes I will'Cause that was the day, that my daddy died
Oh yes, I am wiseBut it's wisdom born of painYes, I've paid the priceBut look how much I gained
We meet every day at the same cafe — 6:30I know, I know she'll be thereHolding hands, making all kinds of plansWhile the jukebox plays our favorite song
