The sun it rises and sets on her
Ev-ry day
Creates a halo going up and down either way
And when my mind is clouded by the world
She presides
I get my consolation from this girl
In her eyes
Big brown eyes
I've known her to be that way
I've known her to be that way
Even when I'm stammering blinking
She want to know what I'm thinking
I've known her to be that way
I've known her to be that way
I don't dawdle or I don't tarry
Cause she's an extraordinary girl
I'm not a king nor do I play one
On TV
I'd stay six seasons on a bad sitcom
To lay residuals at her feet
And in those times she's far out of reach
I try prayer
Don't have my eyes on any other prize
Cause there's no winning if she's not there
I've known her to be that way
I've known her to be that way
I'm jealous of the raindrops on her
Every breeze that blows upon her
I've known her to be that way
I've known her to be that way
Your results may vary
Get your own extraordinary girl
Now you may glimpse her walking with another guy
Making love beneath a clear November sky
But should I ask, I know she’d… look me in the eye
And she would lie… with me
Yes, she’d lie… with me
And when I feel I'm near losing her
I try prayer
I wonder could there ever be true love without fear always near
I've known her to be that way
I've known her to be that way
You might say it's complicated
She acts like we've never dated
I've known her to be that way
I've known her to be that way
So what if she's being contrary
I can't lose this extraordinary girl
