Magazine Girl
=============
by Stephen Housden and Paul Gildea


Lead vocal by Wayne Nelson

She rides the midnight train to Newtown
Her long legs across the seat
And talks of lunch at Ansty’s Teahouse
Where the fashion lions feed

She's running away, so tired of her small world,
then turning the page, is there anybody there.

She cries over and over again,
could this ever be the life for me?
Long nights drinking her coffee esprit,
talk of lovers and swirl,
she's dying to play, she's a magazine girl.

Another perfumed Monday morning,
life without a care,
retail friends and gossip warnings,
the weekend in her hair,
she's turning away, pretends she never needs much,
but longing to say, doesn't anybody care?

She cries over and over again,
could this ever be the life for me?
Long nights drinking her coffee esprit,
talk of lovers and swirl,
she's dying to play, she’s a magazine girl.

Vanity's in vogue,
mode and style is all she needs to make the scene,
a weekend with her movie queens,
still-life inside her magazine ...

- guitar solo -

She's running away, pretends she never needes much,
still longing to say, doesn't anybody care __?

She cries over and over again,
could this ever be the life for me?
Long nights drinking her coffee esprit,
Talk of lovers and swirl,
she's dying to play, she is running away,
she is turning the page, she's a magazine girl.
