Like Everyone She Knows Lyrics - James Taylor

Like everyone she knows 

She's holding out for truelove 

Waiting on an answer 

Ready for a change 

And everywhere she goes 

She's just a little bit on the lookout 

A day might mean tomorrow 

Questions still remain 

It's not that she's so sad 

She always was a happy soul 

But lately she gets to wonder to herself 

What's the good of going on anymore 

I see her in her room 

Sitting at the window 

Wondering if she's pretty 

Feeling just a little small tonight 

She thinks of going home 

Giving up on the city 

Maybe moving back down to mobile 

It's not that far to fall 

I know she won't see me 

But I might just say anyhow 

If I could be right there right now 

As I myself was told 

Hold tight to your heart's desire 

Never ever let it go 

Let nobody fool you into giving it up too soon 

Tend your own fire 

Lay low and be strong 

Wait awhile 

Wait it out 

Wait it on out 

Wait it out 

It'll come along 

I know she won't see me 

But I might just say anyhow 

If I could be right there right now 

As I myself was told
