Girl
Mr.Moore Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey pretty girl, won't you look my way?
Love's in the air tonight
You can bet you make this ol' boy's day
Hey pretty girl, won't you look my way?

Hey pretty girl, can I have this dance?
And the next one after that
Gonna make you mine, there's a real good chance
Hey pretty girl, can I have this dance?

Hey pretty girl, it feels so right
Just like it's meant to be
All wrapped up in my arms so tight
Hey pretty girl, it feels so right

Life's a long and winding ride
Better have the right one by your side
And happiness don't drag its feet
And time moves faster than you think

Hey pretty girl, wanna take you home
My mama's gonna love you
She'll make me sleep on the couch, I know
Hey pretty girl, wanna take you home

Hey pretty girl, let's build some dreams
And a house on a piece of land
We'll plant some roots and some apple trees
Hey pretty girl, let's build some dreams

Life's a long and winding ride
Better have the right one by your side
And happiness don't drag its feet
And time moves faster than you think

Hey pretty girl, you did so good
Our baby's got your eyes
And a fighter's heart like I knew she would
Hey pretty girl, you did so good

Hey pretty girl, when I see the light
And it's my time to go




Gonna thank the Lord for a real good life
A pretty little girl and a beautiful wife
