She's a strange girl, and everybody sees her
In the same world- no one wants to be her
She's a strange girl, she doesn't make it easy
She never tries to be like all the rest
She doesn't know she's different as she buttons her own cigarette
She snubs the bottom line

Does she know something we don't? a secret only she keeps
The leading role in her own play
Does she see something we don't, what's the mystery in
A world of gold where we see grey

She's instinctive, she doesn't need a leader
She's selective, she'll take it or she'll leave it
Yeah she checks out, while everybody's waiting
She'd rather spend her days in reverie
She isn't pinned down easily- she rolls like liquid mercury
She makes a fool of time

Does she know something we don't? a secret only she keeps
The leading role in her own play
Does she see something we don't, what's the mystery in
A world of gold where we see grey

If all our jaded walls came tumbling down
Would we need them if we trust ourselves and trust each-other
Maybe it's that simple, maybe that's her secret- yeah

Does she know something we don't? a secret only she keeps
The leading role in her own play
Does she see something we don't, what's the mystery in
A world of gold where we see grey
It's a world of one in her own way, yeah oh- a world of gold her own way She's a strange girl Oh, she's a strange girl
