At the store loading groceries
It was simple madness when I saw
My princess
Heard her voice and I saw her face
When she gave me my change she
Said 'Thank you', thank you
It was a revelation
A metaphysical sensation
I beg for liberation
And her number
Refrain:
She had a smile of a princess
A soul made of gold
Would her heart grant me access
Could I just be bold
Had a smile of a princess
But maybe life will teach
What good is a princess
When she's out of reach
Now I go shopping every day
Buying simple nonsense just to see
My princess
Wrote a note asking for a date
Put it in my pocket to my empty
Wallet
It was a revelation
A metaphysical sensation
No more hibernation
Here comes summer
Refrain:
She had a smile of a princess
A soul made of gold
Would her heart grant me access
Could I just be bold
Had a smile of a princess
But maybe life will teach
What good is a princess
When she's out of reach
Looking like an idiot
Stranded at the beach
What good is a princess
When she's out of reach
Looking at the lady who is sitting at
The register today
She's not the same
I realize with sweat and tears and
Flowers in my hand
That I'm too late ? now she's only
In my mind
Oh ? she had a different smile
Haven't seen her in a while
The lesson I can take is I should never
Hesitate, no
Oh I want to see her face
Run with her in sweet embrace
But I can't see her coming round
Round for me now
