oysterband - no ordinary girl lyrics
[verse 1]
i first saw her in the month of february
gliding through the market hall
shallow steps and singing softly
round her head a scarlet shawl
i next saw her on the road to kington
fixing cars with a steady gaze
i drove on past uncertain how to
make sense of her solitary ways
[chorus]
strange hands, strange beauty
not a face for the modern world
still searching, going nowhere
no ordinary girl
no ordinary girl
[verse 2]
i saw her once again in august
moved closer so i could speak
held my breath and walked on past
that long scar upon her cheek
i heard the talk in the pub that evening
the ugly talk of a beauty rare
the talk of men who went home lonely
who dreamt of trying but wouldn’t dare
[chorus]
strange hands, strange beauty
not a face for the modern world
still searching, going nowhere
no ordinary girl
no ordinary girl
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
i never heard or saw her after
i never felt that steady gaze
when i asked around no one had seen her
but only the stories and rumours remain
[chorus]
strange hands, strange beauty
not a face for the modern world
still searching, going nowhere
no ordinary girl
no ordinary girl
strange hands, strange beauty
not a face for the modern world
still searching, going nowhere
no ordinary girl
no ordinary girl
no ordinary girl
no ordinary girl
