Our conversation was short and sweet   It nearly swept me right off my feet.   And I'm back in the rain   And you are on dry land   You made it there somehow   You're a big girl now      Bird on the horizon, sitting on a fence   He's singing this song for me at his own expense   And I'm just like that bird   Singing just for you   I hope that you can hear   Hear me singing through these tears      Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast   Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last   I can change, I swear   See what you can do   I can make it through   You can make it, too      Love is so simple, to quote a phrase   You've known it all the time   I'm learning it these days   But I know where I can find you   In somebody's room   It's a price I have to pay   You're a big girl, all the way
