Lovely Girl

Carla & Paul aka Butterfly Division

I see her in the morning, sunlight in her hair
Golden like the summer, like she don’t have a care
She walks past my window, like a melody so sweet
Every step she takes is dancing to a silent beat

She don’t even know my name,
But she’s got me caught in her flame

Oh, lovely girl, swaying down the street
She’s got the whole world spinning underneath her feet
Never looks my way, but I still can’t turn away
Oh, lovely girl, you’re the song I wanna play

She’s got a rhythm, yeah, she’s moving with the breeze
Like a daydream come alive, oh, she’s got me weak in the knees
Every time she passes by, I wonder what she’s thinking
If she’s lost inside a love, or if her heart is still unwritten

She don’t even know my name,
But she’s got me caught in her flame

Oh, lovely girl, swaying down the street
She’s got the whole world spinning underneath her feet
Never looks my way, but I still can’t turn away
Oh, lovely girl, you’re the song I wanna play

Maybe one day she’ll stop, turn around and see
That the boy in the window’s been waiting patiently
Maybe she’ll smile, maybe she’ll say
“I’ve seen you watching me every day”

Oh, lovely girl, swaying down the street
Maybe someday you’ll be walking back to me
For now, I’ll watch you go, like a dream I can’t hold
Oh, lovely girl, you’re my story untold
