While she lays sleeping  I stay out late at night and sing my songs  Sometimes all the nights can seem so long  And it's good when I finally make it home  All alone  While she lays dreaming    And she believes in me  I'll never know just what she sees in me  I taught 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 was right  I could find a way  While she waits,  While she waits,  For, me
