Lyrics
She studied for a fine art degree in a red brick university
She said oh wow is that really me
I was working on a building site
I'd joined a band we were doing alright
Sessions on the BBC
She drew a picture of the queen naked in bath for all to see
It's hanging on my wall it remains a talking point
When my friends come over to call
She was a well to do girl she came from a different world
I never stood a chance she met a Dutch photographer
And he photographed her in her underpants
She wrote to me explaining why we had to say goodbye
I found it hard to accept but I did as I was told
I was as good as gold did my best to forget her
I never heard from her in a very long time
Until she appeared in a vision of mine
As real and as true as I stand here before you
So I put her into this song it's like she's been here all along
Should I try and track her down now I'm back in the same old town if you know who I'm talking about tell her to come by I hardly ever get out
I'd been back here for a couple of years there was no sign of her I was starting to think I'd made it all up
And Mr Shadrack was calling my bluff when out of the blue I took a call and we went to the zoo and we went to the ball
We caught the bus after the wedding drove into the sunset
That was the ending, that, was the ending
