Girl Number One

Can't talk for long I'm running out of power
They caught me in the lobby
Took me to the tower
Sat me down 'told me I was lucky
- no one ever leaves: I should be pleased
"Here's your suit, put it on"
It was me all along
That they wanted
- I said they wanted

I'm so sorry Girl Number One
I got stuck on the thread they spun

It all began whan I got a letter
'found it in my pocket, nothing written on it

Yeah!
A single page torn from a copy
Of a magazine I'd never seen
It was me in Japan with a girl, hand in hand
I didn't know her - I've never been there

I'm so sorry Girl Number One
I cut through all the thread they spun

I was there for a second in my world
Looking closer (closer) at the girl
I believe it was you - you will see
I could only be there with you

I had a lean time when I wasn't looking
Middle of the spring time

Apt timing
Could've been at the point I wasn't steering
Straight forward, just shored up
Even then I was wrong
It was you all along
I never told you
(I never, I never)

I'm so sorry Girl Number One
I cut through all the thread they spun


Are you ready now?
