lyrics

I was a stupid little leaf,
I'd fallen too far from my tree,
When your loving hands caught me.

I was a city left in ruins,
By the turbulance of war,
And you were the concrete that made me stronger;

You made me stronger.

Like a bird without a home,
I was searching for a nest,
When your sweet voice gave me rest.

And without you I'm a scortching Summer's day,
That every little child hates,
You are the cool creek that makes me worth loving;

You make me worth loving.

As if I were a tempest,
Spun out far beyond myself,
Your hands steadied me.

And as David couldn't help,
But long for Bathsheba,
I am drawn to you so powerfully;

So powerfully.

I'd be anything for you,
I'd be the sole in your shoes.

I'd do anything for you,
I'd cheer your face when you're blue.

I'd sing anything to you,
Just as long as you'd sing for me too.

But everybody knows that I'm no good for you,
And everybody knows that your heart wasn't true,
And everybody knows what you did,
Sad to say but you didn't get off the hook, kid.

Well, I'd do anything for you,
But everybody knows.
