I'm not the world's most positive guy I curse when I drive, don't like to fly I think everybody's got an angle or a game Most entertainment strikes me as lame But there's a girl I'll call my friend She comes around for long weekends We start talking, it feels real strange Edges get duller, my perspective changes on me I see the saint in the sinner, The statue in the stone The light in the dark, the marrow in the bone The good in the bad, the up in the down The pearl in the oyster, the fox in the hound Every time she comes around Like a breath of fresh air she glides in a room Opens the windows, out goes the gloom Stares down the clouds ‘till they get up and leave
Spreads the sunshine ‘round ‘Till a little rubs off on me I see the saint in the sinner, The statue in the stone The light in the dark, the marrow in the bone The good in the bad, the up in the down The pearl in the oyster, the fox in the hound Every time she comes around Suddenly there's harmony When she's by my side That there might be hope for me Can't be denied I see the saint in the sinner, The statue in the stone The light in the dark, the marrow in the bone The good in the bad, the up in the down The pearl in the oyster, the fox in the hound Every time she comes around
