What's a Girl Like You Doing in a Song Like This ft. Tim Patterson Lyrics

The storm it is approaching

The sky is turning gray

Every moment it seems paradise

Slips another inch away

Never thought I'd lose you

Never thought I'd see the day

Hey, what's a girl like doing in a song like this.

Late at night I dream I'm in

A raging hurricane

Dressed in rags and paper bags

Like a beggar in the rain

Just like Marlon Brando

I'm calling out your name

Hey, what's a girl like doing in a song like this.

Hey what's a girl like you

Doing in this song

This mournful dirge of loneliness

Is not where you belong

Its sadness doesn't suit you

The melody's all wrong

Hey what's a girl like you doing in a song like this

The lights go dim, the stage is set

The curtains are all drawn

But the crowd knows that the playwright

Has got the script all wrong

Where the hero wakes to an empty bed

In cold, bare light of dawn

Hey, what's a girl like doing in a song like this.

Hey what's a girl like you

Doing in this song

This mournful dirge of loneliness

Is not where you belong

Its sadness doesn't suit you

The melody's all wrong

Hey what's a girl like you doing in a song like this

Hey what's a girl like you doing in a song like this

Hey what's a girl like you doing in a song like this
