Disney Girls
Art Garfunkel Lyrics

Clearing skies and drying eyes
The problematic conditions that once existed appear to be improving, and people's eyes are no longer teary from sadness or stress.

Now I see your smile
Because the issues appear to be improving, people are much happier, and their smiles can be seen.

Darkness goes and softness shows
As the heavy and gloomy atmosphere evaporates, everything that was once soft starts to appear again naturally.

A changing style
The situation changes, and people tend to alter everything, including their attitude, behaviour, personality, and punctuality.

Just in time words that rhyme
Words that perfectly correspond to each other, such as rhyming words, come at the right time to benefit whoever hears them.

Well bless your soul
To say 'bless your soul' is to appreciate someone's actions or to exclaim surprise or relief regarding a positive event or news.

Now I'll fill your hands
The singer promises to shower someone with gifts, praise, or whatever else they require because of the good news.

With kisses and a Tootsie Roll
The individual will receive warm, endearing treatment and might even get candies as a reward.

Oh reality, it's not for me
The complicated world of actuality seems to put stress on the artist.

And it makes me laugh
However, the intention is to use humour or to find pleasure in it rather than stressing out too much.

Oh, fantasy world and Disney girls
Instead, the singer prefers to live the life of his dreams by indulging in fantasy worlds and Disney girls.

I'm coming back
The artist declares his intention to return to the make-believe world he experienced as a child.

Patti Page and summer days
Patti Page is mentioned as someone who had an effect on the singer's life along with the hot, happy days of summer.

On old Cape Cod
He has fond memories of growing up on Cape Cod.

Happy times making wine
In his garage, he has memories of happy times when people get together to create wine.

In my garage
He specifies that these enjoyable moments of crafting wine only happened in his garage because that was his corner of the world.

Country shade and lemonade
The warmth of the sunshine and a cold glass of lemonade are associated with country living.

Guess I'm slowing down
The singer realizes that he is not as young and active as he used to be.

It's a turned back world
He feels that everyone in the world has turned their back on him, and he is not getting the support he requires.

With a local girl in a smaller town
He imagines settling down and marrying someone from the same town or region where he grew up.

Open cars and clearer stars
The singer imagines the sense of freedom and optimism of a spacious car with an unobstructed view of a clear starry night sky.

That's what I've lacked
He has been missing these moments of joy and excitement, which he longs to experience again.

But fantasy world and Disney girls
Again, the singer emphasises that he prefers to escape to a fantasy world to satisfy his desires.

Love, hi Rick and Dave
The artist exchanges greetings with Rick and Dave as well as his relatives.

Hi Pop, well good morning mom
He also greets his father and mother as he mentions the morning.

Love, get up guess what
He sends out a message to others, encouraging them to wake up and hear the news.

I'm in love with a girl I found
He has discovered someone who he is genuinely in love with.

She's really swell
To call her 'swell' is to emphasize her beauty and overall appeal.

Cause she likes church, bingo chances, and old-time dances
He likes her because she enjoys doing what he does, including visiting church or participating in traditional styles of dancing and bingo.

All my life I spent the night with dreams of you
He has spent much of his life imagining, dreaming, and yearning for love or the kind of relationship that he now feels he's found.

And the warmth I missed, and for the things I wished
He refers to a typical longing that individuals have for the feeling of warmth or love when they miss someone they care about.

They're all coming true
He implies that after longing for unconditional love and warmth, he finally feels like he has found it.

I've got my love to give
The focus is now on what the artist can offer, in this case, the feelings of romantic love that he can bestow on his new partner.

And a place to live
As well as romantic love, he has a place to call home.

Guess I'm gonna stay
He has planned to stay with this girl, and their new life feels like it's worth it.

It'd be a peaceful life
Looking forward, he imagines a calm and tranquil life for the two of them.

With a forever wife
He wants the girl he's with to be his lifelong partner, enjoying a long and committed partnership.

And a kid someday
Looking even further ahead, he imagines having a child with his new wife, illustrating his desire for a full life.

It's earlier nights and pillow fights
The singer further emphasizes his desire for a smaller, quieter life, having fun in more serene settings like having pillow fights in the night.

And your soft laugh
In particular, he enjoys his partner's gentle laugh.

Fantasy world and Disney girls
In conclusion, the artist admits that he still desires to indulge in what he calls the 'fantasy world and Disney girls,' but this life with this woman brings him happiness too.

I'm coming back
The song concludes with the singer mentioning he's still desiring to come back to his idealized world of fantasy and imagination.
