Shelly
Like two sparrows in a hurricane,
Tryin to find their way,
with a head full of dreams,
And faith that can move anything,
They've heard it's all up hill,
But all they know is how they feel,
The world says they'll never make it,
Love says they will;
There's a baby cryin,
And one more on the way,
There's a wolf at the door,
With a big stack of bills they can't pay,
The clouds are dark,
And the wind is high,
But they can see the other side;
(Chorus)
She's eighty three, and he's barely driving a car,
She's got his ring, and he's got the key to her heart,
It's just a matter of time,
they'll spread their wings and fly;
(Chorus)

She's fifteen and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the key to her heart
It's just a matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly
Chorus
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams and faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will
There's a baby crying and one more on the way
There's a wolf at the door with a big stack of bills
They can't pay
The clouds are dark and the wind is high
But they can see the other side
CHORUS
She's eighty three and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the key to her heart
It's just a matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly
