about
"The Girl in the Yellow Dress"
lyrics
You were the Girl in the Yellow Dress,
With beauty and brains and charm you were blessed,
I fancied you from the first it is safe to confess.
But I was a boy who was terribly shy,
I turned to stone every time you walked by,
All your advances I cast accidentally aside.
Oh, when I look back I see,
The look in your eyes as you smiled at me,
Oh, guess that I wasn't ready to be...
The language of love I could not understand,
A cowardly child stood in for the man,
I took my feelings and buried them deep in the sand.
So you found another who'd play at your game,
Who treasured your touch, who kindled your flame,
For you I was glad, but for me I was sorely ashamed.
Oh, when I look back I see,
The look in your eyes as you smiled at me,
Oh, guess that I wasn't ready to be...
You were the Girl in the Yellow Dress,
How I had dreamed to receive your caress,
But looking back now I can laugh at my romantic mess.
Now I'm a man, perhaps slightly delayed,
I've learned and I've grown, so I will not stray,
When I meet the next Girl in the Yellow Dress someday.
Oh, when I look back I see,
The look in your eyes as you smiled at me,
Oh, guess that I wasn't ready to be...
Oh, when I look back I see,
The look in your eyes as you smiled at me,
Oh, maybe now I am ready to be...
