[Verse 1]
Her parents said, "Girl, don't leave home"
But her heart kept cheering her on
She had a real good man, a steady job
But the two of them just weren't in her heart
[Chorus]
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday I'd need
But I kept saying, "Girl, you're wrong, go home"
[Verse 2]
Long days, short nights when you're on the road
For a pretty girl, it's a heavy load
And even so, who'll pay your fare?
She said, "I'll make it on a wing and a prayer"
[Chorus]
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday I'd need
But I kept saying, "Girl, you're wrong, go home"
[Bridge]
She said I've no right to tell her how life should be
Especially when the only one she ever cared about in life was me
But she agreed to go along with my final word
Her parents said, "Girl, don't leave home"
But her heart kept cheering her on
She had a real good man, a steady job
But the two of them just weren't in her heart
[Chorus]
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday I'd need
But I kept saying, "Girl, you're wrong, go home"
[Verse 2]
Long days, short nights when you're on the road
For a pretty girl, it's a heavy load
And even so, who'll pay your fare?
She said, "I'll make it on a wing and a prayer"
[Chorus]
She only wanted to be close to me
To give me the love she knew someday I'd need
But I kept saying, "Girl, you're wrong, go home"
[Bridge]
She said I've no right to tell her how life should be
Especially when the only one she ever cared about in life was me
But she agreed to go along with my final word
