Walking down the road
I met this girl with pink shoes
Sometimes you get chosen
Sometimes you get to choose

Looking for her lowland
Looking high and low and
Ola are [0:24] the strange land
Is it really real

I'm sayin' hey little sister
As we travel alone
With those lovely things shootin'
She should be in my song

I think you're pretty special
I think you're pretty extra
It's measure for measure
And that's a done deal

One man's loss is another man's gain
I couldn't bear to lose you
One man's gain is another man's loss
I have gained everything in you

Well I must be a crack-pot
Have we passed the test
She smiles as she rests
Her tired hand on my chest

Looking for her lowland
Looking high and low and
Ola are [1:18] the strange land
But it was always here

One man's loss is another man's gain
I couldn't bear to lose you
One man's gain is another man's loss
I have gained everything in you

I will be your bodyguard
He will just be me
And if you call me anything
You can call me mystique
