lyrics

THE LONG-HAIRED GIRL
Words and music ©1983 by Dave Caruso

Well I'm walking behind a girl so pretty
Wondering what it's like to belong to her
She's got hair that leads your eyes down to her
Tightly fit shorts and legs that never end

She's alone, so are you
But you don't know what you want her to do
I know, but it's the same every time a long-haired girl
Takes a look at me and I'm in another whirl

She's the long-haired girl, she's alone and she could be mine
But I'm wasting my time
She's the long-haired girl and she don't even know that I'm
Alive and hoping to find
A love to make my life complete
I've seen the love, she looks so sweet
And it's not that she walks so fast, I'm just dragging my feet

Well, I don't even know her name, I don't know her age
Or what I'm getting myself into
But my timing's always off
I see her every day and still I haven't talked to her

She's alone, so are you
But you don't know what you want her to do
I know, but it's the same every time a long-haired girl
Takes a look at me and I'm in another whirl

She's the long-haired girl, she's alone and she could be mine
But I'm wasting my time
She's the long-haired girl and she don't even know that I'm
Alive and hoping to find
A love to make my life complete
I've seen the love, she looks so sweet
And it's not that she walks so fast, I'm just dragging my feet

She needs someone, you need one too
You both need love, you know you do
So take some time, take her somewhere
Where you'll find love -- it's everywhere
