Sitting on the doorstep of the house I can't affordnI can feel you therenThinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hardnto love you even though you nearly lost my heartnHow can I explain the meaning of our lovenIt fits so tight, closer than a glovenn[ Chorus ]nnSitting on a pebble by the river playing guitarnWonderin' if we're really ever gonna get that farnDo you know there's something wrongn'Cause I've felt it all alongnnI can see you face in the mirrors of my mindnWill you still be therenWe're really not so clever as we seem to think we arenWe've always got our troublesnSo we'll solve them at the barnThe days go by, we seem to drift apartnIf I could only find a way to keep hold of your heartnn[ Repeat chorus ]nnSitting in the valley as I watch the sun go downnI can see you therenThinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hardnto love you though you nearly lost my heartnWhen will we know when the change is gonna comenI've got a good feeling and it's coming from the sunnnSitting on a pebble by the river playing guitarnWonderin' if we're really ever gonna get that farnDo you know there's something wrongnWe'll stick together 'cause we're strong
