The Girl in the Song

from From Hell to Hollywood by Bill White

/

lyrics

She is supple as a willow Lighter than the air
I hold her for a moment Then she isnt there
She leaps out of the music Like a polished violin
Before I can tie her down She is back in the song again

She is the one I have been loving all along
My heart was stolen by the girl in the song
I have known her from all the songs Ive heard
She is the music, the rhythm, and the words
Though she has been seen on stage and on screen
I think it would be wrong
To call her anything but the girl in the song

Her furry little boots The way she moves her legs
When she is pretendng to be still
The way she moves her eyes When she speaks to me
Makes me feel like the king of the hill
She is the one I have been loving all along
My heart was stolen by the girl in the song
I have known her from all the songs Ive heard
She is the music, the rhythm, and the words
Though she has been seen on stage and on screen
I think it would be wrong
To call her anything but the girl in the song

She asked me if i liked her hair rolled back into a bun
I said i liked in hanging down, she answered "thats no fun"
her dress is to the knee her shoulders bare and free
her bodys like the trunk of a rowan berry tree
thats the way it is with the girl of the song
