Before my girlfriend and I met, I had to weed through some folks who weren't the "one." Not to say they were bad people, they just weren't the one for me. I thought it would be cute to write about all the things I wanted in a woman. I finally found her….but this song was too good to throw off to the side, so I've included it on the album, in all it's yearning glory.
lyrics
She's got the lightest of eyes
Makes my heart stand still
She's got the smile of an angel
But the devil's dark will
Such a statuesque beauty
Whether short or tall
Her love speaks in volumes
Echoes down my great hall
She's got the longest hair
Flows like silk in the wind
She smells of sweet perfume
A scent I'd gladly defend
Such a radiant woman
She stopped me dead in my tracks
I'll be holding my breath
Until she's coming right back, coming right back
Coming right back, coming right back to me
When will our footsteps cross?
How long do I have to wait?
Suspense is killing me
Why can't I, find a girl like that?
A girl like that, a girl like that
A girl like that, a girl like that
A girl like that, a girl like that
A girl like that, yeah
She laughs at my silly lines
Late at night, cuddled tight
Doesn't mind that I spike my hair
As long as I treat her right
Likes to have me sing her songs
Playing piano on a rainy night
Doesn't find it weird, if I ask her to dance
We just do, cause it feels just right
It feels just right, it feels just right
It feels just right, it feels just right
It feels just right, It feels just right to me
When will our footsteps cross?
How long do I have to wait?
Suspense is killing me
Why can't I, find a girl like that?
A girl like that, a girl like that
A girl like that, a girl like that
A girl like that, a girl like that
A girl like that, yeah
