lyrics

Well, she walked into the room
Just like a queen without a crown
So easily and gracefully she lay her worries down
Eyes deeper than the Great Northern Lakes that she’s from
A smile made of pure golden setting summer suns

So I looked around in bottles
To try to get the nerve
To quit my thinking and just go talk to her
And when I did, well much to my surprise
I saw my whole world in those sweet eyes

Chorus:
Baby, just to know that you’re here
There ain’t a thing in the world to fear
So won’t you come close
And let me whisper in your ear
And I’ll tell you just how I love you dear

Well, you’re long but you’re grounded
You’re strong but sweet
You wrap around me like a weeping willow tree
I’ve spent many years crossing hill and glade
But I could spend my whole life in your sweet shade

Chorus
