A Girl I Know Lyrics

She's not a girl

Easily impressed with the world

She's practical, humble and kind

She carries no illusion for it all to change

She's learned to live with the pain

I like her integrity

She's a loner, just like me

And she's self-controlled and graceful

She won't complain, she won't conform

She'd rather be alone, than be a phony

She doesn't see herself as spiritual

And some might call her cynical

But God looks down on her and smiles

For everything she does is with a heart so pure

A heart of gold to be sure

I wish I could make her see

How much she matters, not just to me

But everyone around

I wonder if the best of us can never know

Oh just how much they mean

And I know everything must pass

All is brief, nothing lasts

It's just a part of life

But walk with me a little while, we'll share the road

And see how far we can go

You never can know
