I heard an old favortie song with a new perspective this weekend. A song that for me had always been about romantic love was transformed into a song about my daughter, Piper. Like it was written for her. I found myself weeping at the truth of it, overcome.
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
but I know that I can't live without her
She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know why it is
but there doesn't have to be a reason anyway
She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know what it is
but I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way of talkin'
I don't know why it is
but it lifts me up when we are walkin' anywhere
She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around
She's got a way of showin'
How I make her feel
and I find the strength to keep on goin'
She's got a light around her
And everywhere she goes a million
dreams of love surround her everywhere
She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me, I get turned around oh oh oh
She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
but I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
but I know that I can't live without her any way
