Get The Girl
Lyrics
Get The Girl
(Jim Quealy, Middle Room Music)
Baby here I am
Looking back again
At the years that snuck on by
Like a stealth plane through a foggy sky
Flying round in circles
I landed safe and sound
You came down from a dream cloud
And found me on the ground
I know I don’t deserve it
The best of every world
If I didn’t die and go to heaven
How did I ever get the girl
Didn’t know where I was going
I was trying to decide
If I should stop and stick around some
Or get back on the road and drive
From a dark end of a back street
To a path so bright and free
Was it something that I did once
Or just the lucky side of me
I know I don’t deserve it
The best of every world
If I didn’t die and go to heaven
How did I ever get the girl
Solo
I never could imagine
From the messy thick of it
There’d be a highway running through here
Where all the puzzle pieces fit
I know I don’t deserve it
The best of every world
If I didn’t die and go to heaven
How did I ever get the girl
