You're like a cool breeze to a hot spell You're like a long drink to a dry well Oh, I know by now there's no use thinking That it's something in that water I've been drinking 'Cause I would not need even one more drop If you'd just let me into your heart You're like a blue sky to a gray day You're like a new try to an old way Oh, I never needed much convincing 'Bout that something in my life that's been missing But I think I know where to find that part If you'd just let me into your heart I got a past, baby; now, who doesn't? I won't ask you to think that I wasn't Who I was back then; yes, it's true But that was when I didn't know you You're like a sweet sight to these tired eyes You're like the first light after a long night Oh, I never believed in the hands of fate But to be with you, baby, I believe I'd wait Til' the end of time for a chance to start If you'd just let me into your heart
