[Verse 1]
Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off of my feet
I'm out in the rain, mmm, and you are on dry land
Mmm, you made it there somehow
You're a big girl now

[Verse 2]
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on a fence
He's singing a song for me at his own expense
And I'm just like that bird, ohh, singing just for you
Mmm, and I hope that you can hear
Hear me singing through these tears

[Verse 3]
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Ah, but what a shame that all we've shared can't last
I can change, I swear, ohh, see what you can do
Mmm, I can make it through
You can make it too

[Verse 4]
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase
You've known it all the time, I'm learning it these days
Oh, I know where I can find you, ohh, in somebody's room
Mmm, it's a price I'll have to pay
You're a big girl all the way
[Verse 5]
A change in the weather is known to be extreme
What's the sense in changing horses in midstream?
I'm going out of my mind, ohh, with a pain that stops and starts
Mmm, like a corkscrew to my heart
Ever since we've been apart
