I seen her walking to a dead end
with black tears coming down
her pretty face
she looks heartbroken-
full of pain
so this songs for her
she had a quiet voice
but she was full of fun
she said it was the story of her life
"I'm not good enough"
I wiped her tears away
and shook my head
enough from her has been said
she was a pretty girl
but thought differently than the world
she wrote lyrics on her hand
and ran cross country with all her might
she thinks she'll never find Mr. Right
she crushes easily
but he makes her get cold feet
so she keeps quiet
she doesn't say anything
yet, another beautiful girl comes
and she catches his eye
[he's blind]
she was a pretty girl
but thought differently than the world
she wrote lyrics on her hand
and ran cross country with all her might
she thinks she'll never find Mr. Right
she's got to keep looking
["this is the story of my life"]
be yourself-
he'll come around
maybe not now
he'll find you
["its nothing new-
to me"]
I know she'll be happy one day
she'll lose her pain
she's a pretty girl...
she was a pretty girl
but thought differently than the world
she wrote lyrics on her hand
and ran cross country with all her might
she thinks she'll never find Mr. Right
