Lyle Lovett - The Girl in The Corner текст песни

I said howdy there lady

This sure is some party

Ive never seen anything

Like this before

She said howdy there honey

Its just barely started

If you think this is something

Just stand here some more

Then she looked at me

Then she laughed at me

Then she lifted her glass to me

And the rest they say is history

I said that girl in the corner

She looks so pretty

Oh the girls all around her

She makes em look plain

Lady I need a drink

Can I bring you another

Im hoping these bubbles

They might know her name

Well she looked at me

Then she laughed at me

Then she handed her glass to me

And the rest they say is history

But when I returned

Champagne in my hands

There stood two strangers

Where we both did stand

And the lady was gone

And the evening wore on

And the girl in the corner

Was never alone

But she looked at me

Then she smiled at me

Then she turned her eyes away from me

And the rest they say is history

Tim he was tall

And susan was smart

And francis she looked

Like a fine work of art

Melissa was sad

But that made her sweet

And dan and elaine

Had the world at their feet

Debra had pliny

Lisa had tony

And the girl in the corner

She couldve had anybody

Richard was cool

And tubb he was funny

And the tarot card lady

She had everyones money

So I said my goodbyes

When it came time to leave

And as I walked out

Someone pulled at my sleeve

She said honey we never did officially meet

But I sure am happy you came

She said that girl in the corner

Shes more than pretty

And man youre not the first

To look over her way

But if you still wanted

I could introduce you

But you never will be the same

Then she looked at me

Then she laughed at me

Then she extended her hand to me

And the rest they say is histroy
