Here Comes My Girl

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

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 goodtimes

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 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 goin' 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. (Watchher 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 waiting, wondering, worrying

About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'.

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' 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.
