She works long nights
Waiting on tables
Trying to get by
She remembers the night
That she fell into love deep
She told him all the secrets
That she keeps
From long
Long
Long
Ago
–
His work
Drags by
But he can still remember
That look in her eye
He’s trying to build a life
And he’s doing alright
But it’s hard to fix
The things that he can’t see
So he tells
Her
Let’s flee
–
My girl
Near the sea
Or in the streets
She’s a lovely bride
To be
–
My girl
In the mountains
Near the sky
He asks “Would you be my wife?”
–
I’m going to love you
My whole life
