Music and Lyrics by Nicky Beltran
She opens her eyes after they've been shut
For only two hours
She raises herself out of the bed
And prays for the power
She feels it cold down in her room
So she dresses for snow
And when she steps out of the door
The sun is shinning so...
she looks at the clock and it doesn't stop
For her to change
So she steps out the door and heads down the road
Thinking how strange
And she's just a smile away from happiness
And sometimes she's complete
And sometimes everything goes right
And somedays she's just beat
And I'm not sure how long she'll go on
the way that she goes
But she wants to make it in this world
And that's all that she knows
She's calm and a little outspoken
Let's things pass her by
Only says what she has to say
When the timing is right
Has met a lot of friends
But keeps only a few
Other things take up her time
So what can she do
So she makes it a point to write a letter
For every five that she gets
Cause in a perfect world they'd be together
Just like when they met
This girl that I speak of
I know all to well
Day after day I live with her
It's me, I won't tell
I'm watching the sun go up and down
Day after night
And wondering what it is we need
to take out of life
