|
By the sand and fire light |
|
While watching the fallin' star |
|
Came a lady from the night |
|
Who started playin' on my guitar |
|
She was like a melody |
|
That no one had ever heard |
|
When she sang her magic song |
|
I had to listen to every word |
|
But she made me see |
|
Like I never had before |
|
Don't you know she set me free |
|
Like I never been before |
|
Don't you know the girl could sing |
|
And I thought of what the future would bring |
|
By the stars and fire light |
|
The music was sweet and clear |
|
Though I had her to myself |
|
I was afraid someone else would hear |
|
Soon the other heard her playin' |
|
Started to gather round |
|
One by one they started stayin' ' |
|
Cause they couldn't believe the sound |
|
And she made them see |
|
Like they never had before |
|
Don't you know she set them free |
|
Like they'd never been before |
|
Don't you know the girl could sing |
|
And I thought of what the future would bring |
|
I see her every now and then |
|
In movies and on |
|
T.V. Wonder as |
|
I sit there watchin' |
|
If she ever thinks of me |
|
By the sand and fire light (oooooooooooooo) |
|
Before she became a star (ooooo just a melody) |
|
She was just a melody |
|
When she was playin' on my guitar |
|
Playin' on my g...playin' on my g...playin' on my guitar |
