songs: GIRL ON THE ROOF

commentary
"Usually the description of a really good song rivals whatever explanation I've come up with in my own head - I think that's kind of the idea. Like I've told that story about 'Girl On The Roof' in interviews. Sometimes I kinda wish I hadn't. I've read a good number of reviews that think that is a straight ahead love song and that's alright. I really don't have an agenda to put across as far as how people interpret my lyrics. Every once in a while it happens..."

lyrics

woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo hoo
woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo hoooo

is she jumping, what an evening to admire the view
flower in her hair, girl on a roof
i can see her, i believe her is she asking for proof
love is in the air, girl on a roof

in the balance of the silence from the street down below
crowd is gonna stare, girl doesn't show
i can see her i believe her, would i say something new
love is in the air, girl on a roof

love is in the air, what a perfect day to find
nothing could compare, what a waste to go and wave goodbye

woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo hoo
woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo hoooo

in the balance of the silence from the street down below
crowd is gonna stare, wanting to know
i can see her i believe her, would i say something new
love is in the air, girl on a roof

love is in the air, what a perfect day to find
nothing could compare, what a waste to go and wave goodbye

woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo - woo hoo hoo woo hoo hoo

is she jumping, what an evening to admire the view
flower in her hair, girl on a roof
i can see her, i believe her, would i say something new
love is in the air, girl on a roof

love is in the air, what a perfect day to find
nothing could compare, what a waste to go and wave goodbye

love is in the air, what a perfect day to find
nothing could compare, what a waste to go and wave goodbye yeah
