Story behind the song
Written in the early 80's, originally as a psychedelic song. Someone suggested I try it as an acoustic number instead, and it worked out much better. The recording has two guitars playing in unison, and after many many vocal takes, this is as good as it gets!
Lyrics
Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Could she be the kind of girl you only see in dreams Would she bring you coffee but never bring you cream But ask the kind of questions that she will make you say And she wont let your answers get into her merry way Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Even in the dead of night she will have her way In the morning make it up to make it go away You wonder if shes crazy or is she simply mad Nothing that she says is good but does that really make her bad Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind She knows the thoughts inside your mind before the words are said And picks them up herself as if they were her thoughts instead You catch her when shes dreaming and she will let you stare Every now and then youll think I wonder if thats really fair Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Have you ever seen such a beautiful girl All dressed up in the colours of her mind Her mind Her mind Her mind
