I've been walking by your side for quite some time now
And i see a working girl without a cause
Looking for a place where you can let your hair down
Walking in and out the same misleading doors
Now you read a lot of books about the city
And you like to talk about the written word
To your own eyes you do not appear that pretty
To me that seems outrageous and absurd
Cause my body wants to hold you
While my heart is hanging on
To all that i belong to
And the ground i walk upon
Now you say i shouldn't worry
About the things you say and do
But my soul is in a hurry
And it's you i'm running to
When it comes to time and space you're a believer
Standing strong in all that you know to be true
Looking up into the night i'm a receiver
Every star i see is reminding me of you
Cause my body wants to hold you
While my heart is hanging on
To all that i belong to
And the ground i walk upon
Now you say i shouldn't worry
About the things you say and do
But my soul is in a hurry
And it's you i'm running to
