I first saw her on Main Street
A mint chip cone in her hand
Gliding by on dancer's feet
Moving like a rock 'n roll band
She looked my way, looked right through me
With eyes the colour or Spring
I saw her smile and I heard her laugh
And I wanted her everything
And I loved her on sight
Reckless as that seems
I was just a boy that night
And she as of my dreams
She wore a purple dress and five inch heels
Brown hair up in a bun
She had pouty lips that were made to be kissed
She looked to be about twenty-one
I saw, pardon me, miss, but I can't help
But feel we've met before
She smiled and said, I don't think so
'Coz I'd remember you
And I loved her on sight
Reckless as that seems
I was just a boy that night
And she as of my dreams
I said, sweet miss, it is my guess
Your heart is like a poem
She said, and if you break it
You bought it, you take it home
And I loved her on sight
Reckless as that seems
I was just a boy that night
And she as of my dreams
Yes I've loved her since that night
And every in-between
It's been thirty years gone by
And she's still of my dreams
I first saw her on Main Street
A mint chip cone in her hand
