The Girl In Aisle Two Lyrics - Tom Scullin

It was springtime in Ohio 

and I had paid my dues 

singing songs to empty chairs 

in a christian pair of shoes 

and I'll admit 

I had my fill of country, rock and blues 

that's when I looked around 

and saw the girl in aisle two 

She looked at me as if I had 

a voice of solid gold 

and clapped her hands in perfect time 

I started to grow bold 

and I sang those songs like I never had 

the feeling grew and grew 

and I owed it all to the girl 

the girl in aisle two 

Now I'm standing on the stage 

of an unlit concert hall 

forgetting lines of melodies 

I can almost recall 

but I remember as if yesterday 

the girl in aisle two 

yes I'll always have that melody 

sweet melody of you 

From Ohio down to Nashville 

a town in Tennessee 

I sang my songs 

for a brand new record company 

and while I did I closed my eyes 

and knew just what to do 

play those songs and think about 

the girl in aisle two 

The road from there is history 

I guess I've done it all 

twenty years of singing songs 

gold records on the wall 

and I never even knew her name 

I never had a clue 

to me she'll always be the girl 

the girl in aisle two 

Now I'm standing on the stage 

of an unlit concert hall 

forgetting lines of melodies 

I can almost recall 

but I remember as if yesterday 

the girl in aisle two 

yes I'll always have that melody 

sweet melody of you
