You're a Big Girl Now (Live at Nippon Budokan Hall, Tokyo, Japan - February 28, 1978) Lyrics

Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly knocked me right off from my feet
And I'm back in the rain
And you are on dry land
You made it there somehow
You're a big girl now

Bird on the horizon, sittin' on a fence
Singin' his song for me at his own expense
And I'm just like that bird
Singin' just like you
I hope that you can hear
Hear me singin' through these tears

Love is so simple, to quote a phrase
You've known it all these times, I'm learnin' it these days
Well I know where I can find you
In somebody's room
It's a price I've got to pay
You're a big girl all the way

Time is a jet plane, hmm, and it moves too fast
Oh, but what a shame that all we've shared can't last
I can change, I swear
See what you can do
I can make it through
You can make it too

A change in the weather is always extreme
Now, but what's the sense of changing
Horses in the middle of a stream?
I'm going out of my mind
With a pain that stops and starts
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Ever since we've been apart

Thank you
