Sally, What can I say about you
That would be true without you,
With your ribbons hanging rainbows in your hand?
You know he's young and still unproven
And to himself unspoken
And though his roads like thieves appear,
Lead him to think he's left what's near,
He's gonna look for you to be who you are.
Your friends are telling you to leave him,
As though they really knew him,
While they rob you with their honor and your name.
But you won't give up now with all your pure love,
Give up with all your strong love.
He's gonna know when he's just as far as any body goes
And he'll look for you to be who you are.
Sometimes my thinking gets so heavy,
I feel I stand too closely.
And it's so useless, somehow I should run away.
But that's not the truth no matter what is,
No matter who they say is
It's you and you alone can be sure that you're not wrong
You've got all you need to be who you are.
Sally, What can I say about you
That would be true without you,
With your ribbons hanging rainbows in your hand?
You know he's young and still unproven
And to himself unspoken
And though his roads like thieves appear,
Lead him to think he's left what's near
He's gonna look for you to be who you are.
