You know sometimes, I don't know why,
But this old town seems so hopeless
Yeah, I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times
Were just a little bit more in focus
But when she puts her arms around me
I can somehow rise above it
Yeah, man when I got that little girl standin' right by my side,
You know, I can tell the whole wide world to shove it, hey!
Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight
Every now and then I get down to the end of the day
And I have to stop and ask myself why I've done it
It just seems so useless to have to work so hard
And nothin' ever really seems to come from it
But then she looks me in the eye and says,
"We're gonna last forever"
And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
No, 'cause it just feels so good and so free and so right
I know we ain't never gonna change our minds about it - hey!
Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight (Watch her walk)
Every time it seems like there ain't nothin' left no more
I find myself having to reach out and grab hold of something
Yeah, I just catch myself wondering, waiting, worrying
About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'
And then she looks me in the eye and says,
"We're gonna last forever"
And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
No, 'cause it just feels so good and so free and so right
I know we ain't never gonna to change our minds about it - hey!
Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight
But this old town seems so hopeless
Yeah, I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times
Were just a little bit more in focus
But when she puts her arms around me
I can somehow rise above it
Yeah, man when I got that little girl standin' right by my side,
You know, I can tell the whole wide world to shove it, hey!
Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight
Every now and then I get down to the end of the day
