I catch shadows of her beauty and I turn away
And my confused adoration grows with unanswered passions
That I can't turn away
She's just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl, that stirs my foolish blood now
She's just a girl; she's just a girl
(She's just a girl)
O - a girl, my window to the world
One night as I lay awake
I heard voices in my head and she spoke to me
I pressed my hands around my face
To lock images I feared would slip away
She's just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl, that stirs my foolish blood now
She's just a girl; she's just a girl
(She's just a girl)
O - a girl, my window to the world, gone to Araby
And everyday I wait for her there
And everyday she isn't there, I walk the streets I walk alone
Oceans of sand every where, I said yeah
Two years I've not seen her
But the light she cast upon me still can burn a chill
And when your mind is on the loose
You can Araby yourself to your greatest thrill
She's just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl, that stirs my foolish blood now
She's just a girl, o the girl
She's just a girl, and everywhere I go now
She's just a girl, just a girl
(She's -)
O - a girl, my window to the world gone to Araby?
Gone to Araby
I dream, I dream in Araby
I live for Araby
Close my eyes to Araby.
Every morning through the crack in her door I catch shadows of her beauty and I turn away And my confused adoration grows with unanswered passions That I can't turn away She's just a girl, just a girl She's just a girl, that stirs my foolish blood now She's just a girl; she's just a girl (She's just a girl) O - a girl, my window to the world One night as I lay awake I heard voices in my head and she spoke to me I pressed my hands around my face To lock images I feared would slip away She's just a girl, just a girl She's just a girl, that stirs my foolish blood now She's just a girl; she's just a girl (She's just a girl) O - a girl, my window to the world, gone to Araby And everyday I wait for her there And everyday she isn't there, I walk the streets I walk alone Oceans of sand every where, I said yeah Two years I've not seen her But the light she cast upon me still can burn a chill And when your mind is on the loose You can Araby yourself to your greatest thrill She's just a girl, just a girl She's just a girl, that stirs my foolish blood now She's just a girl, o the girl She's just a girl, and everywhere I go now She's just a girl, just a girl (She's -) O - a girl, my window to the world gone to Araby? Gone to Araby I dream, I dream in Araby I live for Araby Close my eyes to Araby. Explain Request ×
