Sitting on the doorstep of the house I can't afford   I can feel you there   Thinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hard   To love you even though you nearly lost my heart   How can I explain the meaning of our love?   It fits so tight, closer than a glove      Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar   Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far   Do you know there's something wrong?   'Cause I've felt it all along      I can see your face in the mirrors of my mind   Will you still be there?   We're really not so clever as we seem to think we are   We've always got our troubles so we solve them in the bar   As the days go by, we seem to drift apart   If I could only find a way to keep hold of your heart      Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar   Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far   Do you know there's something wrong?   'Cause I've felt it all along      Sitting in the valley as I watch the sun go down   I can see you there   Thinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hard   To love you even though you nearly lost my heart   When will we know when the change is gonna come   I've got a good feeling and it's coming from the sun      Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar   Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far   Do you know there's something wrong   We'll stick together 'cause we're strong
