Ride The Storm

Hey baby
Come on in
I've been waiting for you

Sit down, relax. You know
I gotta a few things I've been thinking about and I'd like to share them with you
I know things have been a little strange around here lately because of all the
All the stuff going outside the house, you know, the pressure with job
All those things that can weigh you down

You know, sometimes
Just sometimes
You bring that home with you, and I understand but you know, I want us just to stop for a minute and think how much we have together
I'm not talking about the material things, you know, I'm... I'm talking about...
The years that we've given to each other...
The laughter, the tears, the joy and...
Oh yes...
We can think about the heartbreak
But hey!
We still together?
Not because we have to be but because we wanna be
I know we can make it good. We can make it. That's right

I mean, look at how far we've come already, all the things we've accomplished, we've accomplished together. Both going in the same direction, wanting the same things for each other
Sometimes, you know
You call me and you say: "oh... I gotta work late tonight", "I'm gonna be working late"
And I
I sit back and I start to wonder about who you're working with and what you're working on
Yeah

And I might get a little upset but then, you know, you come home and you always find some little way to let me know I got no reason to worry
Oh yeah
I know you love me
I know you have there working for me and these kids, so we're gonna buy things that we like
But you know something? Those things are nice baby, but if you really wanna know what I need - I need you. That's right
Yeah, I need you. I need more time with you
I need time with your arms around me
More time to appreciate each other - that's what we need together
And more time for all those little things that we do for each other
Because you know, little things add up
That's right
They make
Big things
It's all those little things that can make a woman feel so special
So loved
And so adored
And you do that

Yeah
You can make me feel adored
You do it when you want to

What about me?
Oh... yeah, I know, I know, I have my moments too. When I can get only on my nerves
So when you come home at night, maybe it's not "lingerie and champagne" like it used to be
But you know what's there?
That same old heart - the one that beats for you baby
