VERSE 1 - Straight eighths
If you could read my mind
You’d say "baby you’re right
And I don’t wanna fight anymore"
You’re usually righter than I am
And I’m not a very good fighter
Am I? No neither are you
So let’s be through with this one
Because some things never change

I know you’re still my same girl
Who builds her own frames
For the pictures that she paints
Of the lights in Monterey
Coming across the bay
Right back to my same girl

VERSE 2
How can you be so calm
When the truth is sometimes
We live in the eye of the storm
With everything going on around us
I feel comfort in the sounds when you say
It will be ok
Like a star guiding me
To the light of the day
The doldrums could follow me
