I fell in love with the girl in the picture
|
That I used 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
|
The girl in the Life magazine
|
|
The first time I 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
|
The girl in the Life magazine
|
|
All of my friends used to laugh
|
Said I was certifiably mad
|
'Til the day 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
|
The girl in the Life magazine

La Chica De La Revista
|
(Spanish)
|
|
Fue de la chica de aquella revista que me enamore
|
En mi bolsillo su foto escondida
|
Para siempre guarde
|
Y yo me sentia un hombre importante
|
Al verla mirandome a mi
|
En suenos a veces la vi
|
Obsesionada
|
Llamando y llorando por mi
|
Yo era su vida, su amor
|
Y ella queria
|
|
Delar la revista por mi
|
|
La vi una tarde alla en el mercado
|
Me miraba al pasar
|
Y adivine que algo estaba empezando
|
Una aventura especial
|
Me enamore en ese mismo momento
|
Vino conmigo a vivir
|
Y en casa sone
|
Que salio de aquella revista
|
A darme una noche feliz
|
No se queria marchar
|
Solo queria
|
|
CORO
|
|
Y se reian de mi (y se reian de mi)
|
Como si fuese un loco total
|
Hasta el dia en que a todos se lo demostro
|
Ella me vino a buscar
|
Y fue asi que al leer todas mis cartas
|
Se fue enamorando de mi
|
Y al final ya lo ve
|
Por fin la muchacha
|
|
CORO
|
|
Y se reian
|
