about

Girl started out as a kind of Donovan 'Sunshine Superman' riff with a quirky Luiz Carlos Vinhas psych bossa touch. I've always been a fan of late 60s early 70s Brazilian beat cover bands like Os Carbonos and Os Incriveis who would add a subtle samba element to hits of the day.
The lyric put me in mind of a kind of Scott Walker feel.

Plus it's a true story.

lyrics

Girl
Girl
Girl love is so hard to find
Don’t make me Wait
For Another lifetime

Searching for the right one
girl
That’s just what we do
How was i supposed to know
The right girl for me was you

I found you then
Then I
lost you again
I promise you girl
I Won’t make that
mistake again

Do you feel the same way girl
Cos I just got to know
and If you feel the same way girl
Then you just have to show
Me

So many things were wrong before
It wasn’t meant to be
But now I know
it was written
In the stars
That
You were meant for me.

I need to feel that way again
Like it’s not
just
A dream
Come Make me feel that way again
Like a cat who got the cream
Upside down
You turn me
upside
down

What can i do cos
Girl I’m in love with you

I found you again
Oh girl
I found you again
Oh girl


I have to be with you
So tell me
What else can i do
Girl you know
I’m in love with you
