Alone until my eighteenth year we met four springs ago
She was shy and had a fear of things she did not know
But we got it on together in such a super way
We held each other close at night and traded dreams each day
She said Rocky I've never been in love before don't know if I can do it
But if you let me lean on you take my hand I might get through it through it
I said baby oh sweet baby it's love that sets us free
And God knows if the world should end your love is safe with me
We found an old grey house and you would not believe the way
We worked at night to fix it up took classes in the day
Painting walls and sipping wine sleeping on the floor
With so much love with just too soon we found there'd be one more
And she said Rocky I've never had a baby before, don't know if I can do it
But if you let me lean on you, take my hand I might get through it, through it
I said baby, oh sweet baby it's love that sets us free,
and God knows if the word should end your love is safe with me.
We had lots of problems then but we had lots of fun
Like the birthday party when our baby girl turned one
I was proud and satisfied life had so much to give
Till the day they told me back she didn't have long to live
She said Rocky I never had to die before don't know if I can do it
Now it's back to two again my little girl and I
Who looks so much like her sweet mother sometimes that makes me cry
I sleep alone at nights again I walk alone each day
And sometimes when I'm about to give in I hear her sweet voice say to me
Rocky you know you've been alone before, you know that you can do it
But if you'd like to lean on me, take my hand I'll help you through it, through it.
I said baby, oh sweet baby it's love that sets us free
And God knows if the world should end, your love is safe with me
She said Rocky you know you've been alone before (2x)
