Lyrics
- My head’s in a dizzy whirl
Since I met a certain girl
There isn’t another like her
She’s a matchless pearl
Since I met this maid divine
I do nothing else but pine
Because I know she never could be mine
Chorus
The girl I love, is on a magazine cover
It seems they painted her just for me
I’d fall in love, if I could ever discover
A little girl quite as nice as she
If I could meet, a girl as sweet
I’d simply claim her and name her my queen
For if she ever came I would love her the same
As I love her, on the cover, of a magazine
- My home is a picture book
If ever you came to look
You’d find her in every corner
And in every nook
She’s fairer than all the queens
And loving her simply means
That I’m kept busy buying magazines
