there's something in the way he moves
or looks my way, or calls my name
that seems to leave this troubled world behind
if I'm feeling down and blue
or troubled by some foolish game
he always seems to make me change my mind
and I feel fine anytime hes around me now
and he's around me now
almost all the time
and if I'm well you can tell that he's been with me now
and he's been with me now
quite a long, long time
And I feel fine
every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning
and I find myself careening
into places where I should not let me go
he has the power to go where no one else can find me
yes, and to silently remind me
of the happiness and good times that I know, you know
but as I said I just got to know that:
it isnt what he's got to say
or how he thinks or where hes been
to me, the words are nice, the way they sound
I like to hear them best that way -
It doesn't much matter what they mean
but he says them mostly just to calm me down
and I feel fine anytime he's around me now
he's around me now
almost all the time
and if I'm well you can tell that he's been with me now
and he's been with me now
quite a long long time -
and I feel fine
