"Oh wonderful find, unlike no one before her.
The world bowed before her. Do you know what I mean?
I think I fell from the sky when she told me she needs me.
We were so happy like a couple on the silver screen."

Verse 2 - Same as Verse 1

Lyrics:

"Took a trip outta town. We went south of the border.
Somebody told us where we could run away.
One morning you wake up and no one's beside you.
No one to guide you, do you know what I mean?"
