ADDED 09/01/05 Wrote this around six weeks ago methinks. Keyboard duties undertaken by Mr Andrew Bright, and the generous soul also played that nice little guitar part in the quiet bit.
The girl with pencils in her hair was sitting over there
And I'm so glad she came to see me on this freezing winter night
She is a ray of light
Sunshine through the rain
There's not much about this life that makes sense
But I will seek out the joy I can dispense and receive
I'm down on my knees
She knows me better and worse than most
Other people know the outer shell
She's my equal, I hope I can help
There's not much about this world that makes sense
But I will seek out the joy I can dispense and receive
I'm down on my knees
The girl with pencils in her hair was sitting over there
And I'm so glad she came to see me
