lyrics

I hadn’t met you,
Never even had seen your face,
But my good friend told me,
You had the perfect one for me,
And I promise myself that I wouldn’t fall in love,
Because that would be too clichéd,
But how could I not?
‘Cause you are such a learn’d lady!

And if you could see me now,
I bet you’d think that I was crazy,
Strumming and moping around,
My head racing like a horse parade!
And I know you’ve got so many better things to do,
Than be some old folk singer’s baby,
But, please! Let me dream!
Because you are such a learn’d lady!
