Her eyes light up the night like itty bits of sequin
She likes his face, a story of its own

Waiting for a savior or to see his show

Says she wants to be a star
It's a long road to Heaven
From the backseat of a car

Night they finally spent, Winona Minnesota
A pretty face was born here, the ugly pass away
Holy is the magic in this life or after
Romance is a stranger, lets a lover stay
Chorus 3
Now she's twenty years old
An' she's found another man
Now she's lookin' back on life
And he sings in the band
DO FAF DO FAF DO
