Story behind the song
Jim wrote this song for his fifth album, That's All. He wrote it about a conversation he had with fellow band member Chris Moore ("a great man") over the issue of girls and girlfriends. Chris told Jim that he would unfortunately have to lower his standards if he hoped to find a girlfriend. Jim didn't listen and to good results... Enter: future band member Becky! This is the "Live in the Studio" version of the song that MoU would go on to include in their first set at The Space in Hamden.
Lyrics
I remember the day a great man told me The perfect girl could not exist. I said that, if I should ever find her, I knew that I could not resist. That was the day I met her That was the day she stole my heart That was the day I met her She was the one right from the start. That was the day I met her When I found out that she was true That was the day I met her Then I knew what I should do. Right up til that day my heart was hurting I never knew she'd come around. I almost gave up all of my searching Right before you turned around. CHORUS
