You’re a Big Girl Now

Lyrics

Our conversation was short and sweet It nearly swept me off-a my feet And I'm back here 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, sittin' on a fence He's singin' a song for me at his own expense And I'm just like that bird Oh singin' just for you I hope that you can hear Hear me singin' through these tears Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast Oh, but what is the use of changing if 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 Love is so simple, to quote a phrase You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days Oh, I know 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 A change in the weather is known to be extreme What's the use of changing horses in midstream I'm going out of my mind Oh with a pain that stops and starts Like a corkscrew to my heart Ever since we've been apart
