I fell in love with the girl in the picture That I use to keep Carried her ´round in the back of my pocket She was always with me I imagine that I was a man of importance
And she had a fancy for me And I use to dream she would call Crying her eyes out She had an obsession with me I was the love of her life And she was all mine
Chrous: The girl in the Life magazine
The first time we met in an aisle At the market She was staring at me I knew even then we would share Something special And it was like chemistry
I fell in love from the moment I saw her So I took her straight home with me And that´s where I´d dream She would step right out of the picture And spend a whole evening with me And oh how she hated to go Back to her picture
Chorus
All of my friends use to laugh Said I was certifiably mad ´Til the day that she came And she blew them away And asked me if I´d be her man It seems that she went and fell In love with my letters
Says she´s been looking for me So the story ends well We end up together
