Well she smiles just like a river
Rolling softly to the sea
When she blows away my problems
She helps to take, take a little weight off me

When she's happy, I'm in heaven
If she's down, she'll never say
'Cause she knows I'm treading water
Guess she feels I'm better off that way

But when sadness overcomes me
I'm blinded by the night
She takes my hand and leads me to the light
And she wisphers in the morning
She knows the words to say
To keep me looking forward to the new day

So I try just to be her lover
And I hope she understands
When I hurt her or make her crazy
That I'm just an ordinary man

Yeah she smiles just like a river
Flowing softly to the sea
When she blows away my problems
She helps to take a little weight off me
