Department Store Girl Lyrics

I look round the corner
I glance in the shop door
Maybe I'll see you again
Every dark-haired girl in every department store
Maybe I'll see you again

Hearts can be opened, can be broken
This one just wants to be there
I know you're oceans away but I was hoping today
That I might just see you again

I got the invitation, and I'd like to come
So maybe I'll see you again
The pictures are pretty, you look perfect together
Maybe I'll see you again

And if I could be there, oh I'd be there
But this heart just won't side with my head
Been longing for so long, forgot whether I belong
But I'm hoping to see you again
Yes I hope that I'll see you again

I'd reach for the sky, but I can't move these clouds
I need to be seen, but I'm lost in these crowds
Of the others who fight for you, throw roses and die for you
While I just look down from the stands
The hero has saved the day, there's so many words to say
And I am 8000 miles away

I passed by the store today
This time you weren't there

The pictures have faded and are covered with dust
The sunset grows colder each day

And I would give so much for just your touch
But I'm not the one in your hands
If I could reach over oceans with devotion
I would but then what would be gained?
I want you to be happy, my friend
And maybe I'll see you again
Yes I'm sure that I'll see you again
