Lyrics

Prettiest Girl
The prettiest girl I ever saw
Was the kind of girl I will never meet?
Walking alone with the world behind
On the Angel side of Upper Street

Her pony-tailed hair ran down her back
And the shape of her arch would make any man weep
A shining star amongst the rocks and stones
She was a gem of gems and so unique

And the prettiest girl would never ever be - with the loneliest boy

The prettiest girl I ever saw
Was the kind of girl that was born to rule
Cool and confident in her stride
She was pretty and smart and no ones fool

Her perfect skin around her perfect frame
You couldn?t describe with any word
(So) what should I do to make her know?
That if I was the one ? we?d rule the world

Yet the prettiest girl would never ever be - with the loneliest boy

Oooooh
If I was the one
I?d sell my soul
I?d sell the sun

The prettiest girl I ever saw
Was the kind of girl I will never meet?
Walking along with the world behind
On the Angel side of Upper Street

She floated past the Antique Mall
and disappeared amongst the 73?s
that tower above the taxis and cars
the traffic below the shops and bars
Beneath the (pale grey) sky that hides the stars
that claim the fate of you and me
and the prettiest girl who?d never ever be - with the loneliest boy

(That?s me)
