Our conversation was short and sweet   It nearly swept me off my feet   And I'm back in the rain   Oh, 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 his song for me at his own expense   And I'm just like that bird   Oh, singing just for you   I hope that you can hear   Hear me singing through these tears      Love is so simple, to quote a phrase   You've known it all the time, I'm learning it these days   And I know where I can find you   Oh, in somebody's room   It's a price I have to pay   You're a big girl all the way      Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast   Oh but what a shame, that all we've shared can't last   I can change I swear   Oh, see what you can do   I can make it through   You can make it too      A change in the weather is known to be extreme   But what's the sense in changing horses in midstream   I'm going out of my mind   Oh, with a pain that stops and starts   Like a corkscrew to the heart   Ever since we've been apart
