Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,
And I find myself careening
Into places where I should not let me go.
She has the power to go where no one else can find me,
Yes, and to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know.
It isn't what she's got to say
Or how she thinks or where she's been.
To me, the words are nice, just the way they sound.
I like to hear them best that way -
It doesn't much matter what they mean,
And she says them mostly just to calm me down.
