Valtz De Mon Pere (Lovers' Waltz) - Rickie Lee Jones

How can I tell you

The way I feel when you’re inside?

You made this girl

As young as the moon

And old as the lips

The wave that rests

In the pool, guarding

We come unknowing

The where or the why

Throwing back our weight

Growing by and by

Staring at what we’ve made

As if we’re not afraid

As helpless as the wind

As perfect as the sun

At days end

We’ll watch each other

'Til we’re sure we are safe

Counting all the sheep

That still pass this way

And darling, as you dream

You seem to glow

With the faces that you know

And I’m jealous that I can’t be there

We’ll stay together

We’ll never part

Our grandchildren will know us

'Cause they’re made of our heart

And even though we’re parted

From the physical world

I’ll always be your girl

And I’ll watch the world

For signs of love
