Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Here Comes My Girl lyrics

You know sometimes, I don't know why
But this old town just seems so hopeless
I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times
Were just a little bit more in focus

But when she puts her arms around me
I can somehow rise above it
Yeah, man when I got that little girl standin' right by my side
You know, I can tell the whole wide world and shove it, hey

Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight

Every now and then I get down to the end of the day
I have to stop, ask myself why I've done it
It just seems so useless to have to work so hard
And nothin' ever really seems to come from it

And then she looks me in the eye
And says, "We're gonna last forever"
And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
No, 'cause it just feels so good and so free and so right
I know we ain't never gonna change our minds about it, hey


Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight
Watch her walk, uh

Every time it seems like there ain't nothin' left no more
I find myself having to reach out and grab hold of somethin'
Yeah, I just catch myself wonderin', waitin', worryin'
About some silly little things don't add up to nothin'

And then she looks me in the eye
And says, "We're gonna last forever"
And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
No, 'cause it just feels so good and so free and so right
I know we ain't never gonna' change our minds about it, hey

Here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, and she looks so right, she is all I need tonight
That's right, that's right
