You’re a Big Girl Now (9/16/74, Take 2)

[Verse 1]
Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off-a my feet
And I'm back in the rain, oh
And you are on dry land
Oh, you made it there somehow
You're a big girl now

[Verse 2]
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase
You've known it all the while, I'm learning it these days
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh
In somebody's room
Oh, It's a price I have to pay
You're a big girl all the way

[Verse 3]
Bird on the horizon, sitting on a fence
He's singing his song for me at his own expense
And I'm just like that bird, oh
Singing just for you
Oh, I hope that you can hear
Hear me singing through these tears

[Verse 4]
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Oh, but what a shame it is that all we've shared can't last
I can change, I swear, oh
See what you can do, oh
I can make it through
You can make it too

[Verse 5]
A change in the weather can be extreme
But it ain't like changing horses in midstream?
I'm going out of my mind, oh
With a pain that stops and starts, oh
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Ever since we've been apart
