She's got a hold on the night She's carefree and dancing under the streetlight I had never seen grace like I did in her face Captured in a smile She's been given a light That points to the heavens Up through the dark night In a world that's so tired She knows a hope that's greater than gold And I try to hide how my tongue gets tied At the very sight of her What am I to do When words, they fall right through I'll just sing a melody Pray that she'll hear me She is a princess who hides her heart in a castle For she is the bride Of a King that loves her Stronger than the ocean's tide He has dressed her in white Washed her with water that purifies She's an example to the world of a captive That's been set free And I try to hide how my tongue gets tied At the very sight of her What am I to do When words, they fall right through I'll just sing a melody Pray that she hears me
