Well, she didn't look as pretty
as some others I have known
And she wasn't good at conversation
of making me believe that I belong
And it felt like coming home
She seemed to be so proud of me,
just walking, holding hands
She didn't think that money
And we seemed to fit together
when I held her in my arms
And it left me feeling warm
Cause she brightened up the day
like the early morning sun
She made what I was doing
It's the closest thing to living
that I guess I've ever known
And it made me want to smile
I know some of us were born
to cast our fortune to the wind
And I guess I'm bound to travel
down a road that never ends
But I know I'll never look
upon the likes of her again
And I'll never understand
Cause she brightened up the day
like the early morning sun
She made what I was doing
It's the closest thing to living
that I guess I've ever known
And it made me want to smile
And it made me want to smile
