Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I found my own true love was
On a blue Sunday
She looked at me
And told me
I was the only
One in the world
Now I have found my girl
My girl awaits for me in tender time
My girl is mine
She is the world
She is my girl

La la la la

My girl awaits for me in tender time
My girl is mine





She is the world
She is my girl
