And he said, "What do you love to do?
Outside of your world
Who spends time with you?
Whom do you learn?
When you're not working?
Sweet girl

Where would you go
If you had the time?
Crossing some crazy state line somewhere?
To whom do you cry?
When people are unkind
Sweet girl

I chose to dance across the stages of the world
Everyone said I'd never learn
I still hear your words
"I waited all my life for you, sweet girl"

I did try to come back and listen
You never knew that
I didn't wish it
But I did hear
Every answer, every question
It's all about protection
Still through the sunlight days I wait
Track a ghost through the fog
Sun is burning me
You come runnin' out in the wind with me
The ocean is your blanket
I chose to dance across the stages of the world
Everyone said I'd never learn
I still hear your words
"I waited all my life for you"
I want to fly across the world in a golden ball
Many of the cities that I never saw at all
Sometimes I think I was always on call
Sometimes even I am allowed to fall
He says "come down here for a minute, sweet girl"

Still through the sunlight days I wait
(You asked me) track a ghost through the fog
Sun is burning me
You come runnin' out in the wind with me
The ocean is your blanket
The ocean is your blanket
The ocean is your blanket
Sweet girl
Sweet girl
"Come down here for a minute"
Sweet girl
Sweet girl
Sweet girl...
