Round about evening time.
I get a smile that says it all.
And all the fuss of this life goes away
When her loving ways, come into play.
She puts our children to sleep
With tales of little bo-peep
Like the wings of an angel touching her face
Between tears and pride, I see her grace
In a round about way, she knows how to get me
To forget about everything else in the world,
no it don't matter...
In a round about way, she knows how to make me
feel like the greatest man in Heaven on Earth.
She shows just how much she loves me in her round about way.
Round about 11 last night
As I stumbled my way up our drive
I saw the flicker of the flame in the window
By the candle that says I still love you so
Tell me I ain't got it all?
She makes this old fool stand tall
And as stubborn and proud, as rude and as loud
As I can be, she brings a peace over me.
In a round about way, she knows how to get me
To forget about everything else in the world,
no it don't matter...
In a round about way, she knows how to make me
feel like the greatest man in Heaven on Earth.
She shows just how much she loves me in her round about way.
