[1st verse:]
|
My head's in a dizzy whirl
|
Since I met a certain girl
|
There isn't another like her
|
She's a matchless pearl
|
Since I met this maid divine
|
I do nothing else but pine
|
Because I know she never could be mine
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
The girl I love
|
Is on a magazine cover
|
It seems they painted her just for me
|
|
I'd fall in love
|
If I could ever discover
|
A little girl quite as nice as she
|
|
If I could meet
|
A girl as sweet
|
I'd simply claim her
|
And name her my queen
|
|
For if she ever came
|
I would love her the same
|
As I love her on the cover of a magazine
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
My home is a picture book
|
If ever you came to look
|
You'd find her in ev'ry corner
|
And in ev'ry nook
|
She's fairer than all the queens
|
And loving her simply means
|
That I'm kept busy buying magazines
|
