Lyrics
Supermodel
I was standing in the checkout line and there you were divine
Staring back, my heart attack, I?ll pull you off the rack
I turn to page twenty-three, you?re staring back at me
Do I buy, I must confide, to take you home with me
But why, would you give me the time of day?
Turn around she?s still looking my way
Cause she?s my?..
Supermodel
We all want her
We can?t have her
So I?ll let it be (I?ll let it be)
I turn the page
My eyes engage
My blood is raised
And now I?m feeling free
I?m feeling free (I?m feeling free)
I saw you standing there and you were with another guy
You?re so unfaithful, so ungrateful, caught you with your hands full
I?ll never turn the page again, could someone lend a hand?
You?re just so hot, and in my thoughts, to be with another man
But why, would you give me the time of day?
Turn around she?s still looking my way
Cause she?s my?..
Supermodel
We all want her
We can?t have her
So I?ll let it be (I?ll let it be)
I turn the page
My eyes engage
My blood is raised
And now I?m feeling free
I?m feeling free (I?m feeling free)
She?s my supermodel girlfriend
She rules my thoughts and she controls my hand
That?s my supermodel girlfriend
She?s my supermodel girlfriend
She rules my thoughts and she controls my hand
That?s my supermodel girlfriend
Repeat Chorus
