You’re a Big Girl Now

[Verse 1] Our conversation was short and sweet It nearly swept me off-a my feet And 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, 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 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 Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last I can change, I swear Oh, 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 Oh, in somebody's room Mmm, it's a price I 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 of changing horses in midstream? I'm going out of my mind Oh, with a pain that stops and starts Mmm, like a corkscrew to my heart Ever since we've been apart
