Lyrics
Start the tune
Initiating the song
This song for you
Dedicating the song to someone
The story kind of old
Describing a story with a sense of age
You know how often
Acknowledging the frequency of the story
It's been told -
Emphasizing the repetition of the story
It's been told
Reiterating the prevalence of the story
Song goes like this
Introducing the song's structure
There was a girl wantin' bliss
Narrating a girl seeking happiness
She was ready to go
Expressing her readiness for change
Things here simply
Commenting on the slow pace of things
Moved too slow -
Reiterating the slowness of the situation
Moved too slow
Emphasizing the lethargy of the environment
She thought this was a one horse town
Believing the town lacks excitement
She'd save herself from it anyhow
Planning to rescue herself from the town
Sittin' there day in day out
Spending days in frustration
Made her wanna scream and shout out loud
Feeling the urge to express dissatisfaction
She was workin' on a scheme
Devising a plan to fulfill her dreams
That would jumpstart her dreams
Working on a scheme to achieve goals
And then one sunny day
Describing the arrival of a significant day
He came and took her breath away
Encountering someone who captivates her
Hey hey
Expressing joy or excitement
Lean as a tree
Depicting a person as slender as a tree
His shadow stretched across the street
Describing the person's presence across the street
He wore a charmer's smile
Highlighting a charming smile
He always went that extra mile -
Recognizing the person's extra efforts
Extra mile
Emphasizing the consistent extra mile
He was an old-fashioned guy
Portraying the person as traditional in values
These modern times came as a big surprise
Reacting to the challenges of modern times
They were gonna tear him down
Anticipating criticism or opposition
They were gonna knock him around
Expecting challenges and obstacles
Song ends on a happy note
Concluding the song on a positive note
These two are so very devoted
Describing a devoted relationship
They can live a lover's tale
Asserting their ability to live a love story
They have no intention of failing
Expressing determination to avoid failure
