Lyrics

There was once a girl, she was happy by herself
And she never had a need for anybody else
She was working for the paper and loved to write about
All the things that kept happ'ning to all the downs and outs
She liked to play poker, she liked to play pool
Spoke fluent Japanese, wasn't anybody's fool
When one day in the spring, she was walking down the street
And a man who had a plan decided they should meet, he said

I think you got something that I want
I think you got something that I need
I think you got something that is missing, well
And I think that it's something real
He said, I think I got something that you want
I think I got something that you need
I think I got something that is missing, well
And I think that it's something real

Well, she wasn't really sure what to tell him in response
But when he asked her to the bar, she thought, I'm only living once
So, they talked about their lives, they talked about their dreams
Over whiskey and tequila and Baileys Irish Cream
Their heads were all afuzz, their hearts were all aglow
And he said that he would take her wherever he would go
And when things, they got hazy, and the moon shone up above
And he looked into her eyes and declared he was in love, she said

D'you think I got something that you want
D'you think I got something that you need
D'you think I got something that is missing, well
And d'you think that it's something real, she said
D'you think you got something that I want
D'you think you got something that I need
D'you think you got something that is missing, well
D'you think that it's something real

Well, further down the line in the sober light of day
They were washing up the dishes and thinking what to say
Is everything a game, is there any life on Mars
And are any of us happy, is it written in the stars, they said

We think we found something that we want
We think we found something that we need
We think we found something that was missing, well
And we hope that it's something real
