Anne Grete Preus
Worn Out Shoes
[Verse 1]
First time I saw her was outside a bar
Of the kind where you only find men inside
Our eyes met and I knew I had to follow her
Bought myself a drink and I tried to relax
But her eyes said you should come and sit
By my table, though she didn't even look at me
Come and sit beside me at my table
Well, sometimes I’m like iron
Drawn to a magnet I can not see
Never knowing where it takes me
But I got to follow that beat
I've walked thousands of streets
'Fraid she might notice me, so I picked up my pen
And I wrote a few lines
Then, of course, when I looked up again
She was gone, damned, I should have known
[Chorus]
Jane, Jane’s got strange power
Jane, Jane's got magic eyes
Jane, Jane a rare flower
You should never try to catch her
If you want my advice
[Verse 2]
I packed my things and felt kind of stupid
Settled my bill and smiled at myself
Searching the room one more time for that lady
Thinking maybe it was a dream after all
At the doorstep I met her eyes for the second time
Really strange, she came out of nothing
Gave me a smile
And there I stood with my jacket and all
Now my brain worked like hell to find
Some catchy words to say
And as you've guessed
Dumb as an oyster
Hands in my pocket, I must have been looking
Just as I felt
[Chorus]
Jane, Jane's got strange power
Jane, Jane's got magic eyes
Jane, Jane a rare flower
You should never try to catch her
If you want my advice
Jane, Jane's got strange power
Jane, Jane's got magic eyes
Jane, Jane a rare flower
You should never try to catch her
If you want my advice
