Gentle as she Goes

You snuck up on me and
We took off our wings and
We made something
That was built for two
I know that you meant it
I sure didn’t mind and
At the time
We were both talking true

Now I don’t know that I loved you
As well as I could
I was loving you for good

It was never an easy road
We had our share of trouble
But we had something special
That’s what people knew
We always seemed to work it out
We were fierce then humble
Then one day babe you told me
You were shooting through

I will wait right here
with my best intention
I will set my jaw
I will keep my good face on

And my faith in you

So darlin’ you can have your wings
Let them take you where you go
Where you go
You can take a piece of me too
See what the days bring
See what the time holds
And what the days before
Grow to meant to you

I will wait right here
With my best intention
I will set my jaw
I will keep my good face on

And my faith in you
Gentle as she goes
