To Know A Girl

I know a girl

She knows the world

In ways so many don’t

She always one for company

But don’t mind to be alone

She dreams too big

And she sleeps too little

And rises before the sun

When the midnight oil

Turns saints to sinners

She brightens before the dawn

Oh how lucky am I

To know a girl

I know a girl

She knows the world

In ways so many won’t

Her interest in something less

Is quicksand to the stone

She bides her time she’s writes and bites

Her nails down to the quick

Her soul is wise and redwood high

Her roots are wild as fig

Oh how lucky am I

To know a girl

Yeah how lucky am I

To love a girl

She’s the light that you leave on

Before you come to bed

She’s the aching in your heart

She’s the song inside your head

Oh how lucky am I

To know a girl

I know a girl

I know a girl

In ways so many won’t

I’ve see her sweet

Her red as beet

Her break down to the bone

I let her in under my skin

She lets me take her home

Shes never less

Simply the best

The best I’ve ever known

How lucky am I

To know a girl

Yeah how lucky am I

To love a girl
