Well, she smiles just like a river, flowin' softly to the sea.
When she blows away my problems helps to take, take a little weight off me.
When she's happy, I'm in heaven, when she's down, she don't ever say.
'Cause she knows I'm treadin' water, I guess she thinks I'm better off that way.
 
But when darkness overtakes me I'm blinded by the night,
she takes my hand and l?ads me to the light.
She wak?s me in the mornin', she knows the words to say,
she keeps me lookin' forward to a new day.
 
So, I try just to be her lover and I hope she'll understand:
when I hurt her and I make her crazy that I'm just an ordinary man.
