(A C#7 F#m A Bm E)
While she lays sleeping
I stay out late at night to play my songs
Sometimes all the nights can seem so long
And it's good when I'm finaly make it home
All alone
While she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the lights
And quietly she says how was your night
And I come to her and say it was alright
And I hold her tight
And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday that she was my girl
I could change the world
With my little song, I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I'll go trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night
If my song is right I can find the way
While she lays wheeping
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
And I see my old guitar late at night
Just waiting for me like a secret friend
And there's no end
While she lays crying
I fumble with a melody or two
And I torn between the things I should do
And she says to make it rough when I am through
God our love is true
CHORUS
While she lays
While she waits for me
(Steve Gibb 1990)
