Looking for a hand to hold
There to pull and push against
Even now we're dancing
Longing for a place to know
Where branches reach, lantana grow
And butterflies take their poses___
My lover girl___
My lover girl
Did you grow an inch today
Once you were a tiny thing
And before that, god's dream
Goodness comes to those who wait
Give them love, and sacri-fice
Because it's your turn___ now
My lover girl___
My lover girl
We're as new as scheming eyes
We're as old as mother and child
We're as new as scheming eyes
We're as old as mother and child
Just a little piece of us
Marvelling at all of you
Head, heart, shoulder, shoulder
Put your little hands together
My lover girl___
