Girl

The light in her bedroom as she kept the curtain closed

The shadow was cast as she was taking off her clothes

I stood on the sidewalk and looked up from below

Oh, oh, oh

Lightning strikes with the blankest stare, oh my God

And he answered my prayers, I was tired and confused

I had the scrapes and bruises, but

She took a piece of my heart

Walking downtown with nowhere to go

In the back of the aisle at the video store

I got pulled back in by the undertow

(Oh-oh oh)

Welcome to the bar, turns on the lights

You never know what could happen by the end of the night

I got swept away when the tide got high

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

A deer in the headlights, face pale as a ghost

Tongue-tied, she was dumbstruck and freezing as she froze

The shadow walked past just as the door began to close

She took a piece of my heart

Walking downtown with nowhere to go

In the back of the aisle at the video store

I got pulled back in by the undertow

(Oh-oh oh)

Welcome to the bar, turns on the lights

You never know what could happen by the end of the night

I got swept away when the tide got high

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

Woah, oh oh

Guess I'll be moving on

Wonder where it all went wrong

Walking downtown with nowhere to go

In the back of the aisle at the video store

I got pulled back in by the undertow

(Oh-oh oh)

Welcome to the bar, turns on the lights

You never know what could happen by the end of the night

I got swept away when the tide got high

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
