about

She is and that’s what makes her gorgeous and alive and fearless and oblivious. I wrote the song before I met her. As the quiet observer I sometimes hide in a corner at the bar, watching like Latrec as a song comes true on a napkin.

lyrics

AWKWARD GIRL

she’s such an awkward girl
she walks so fast
she’s such an awkward girl
walks into walls of glass

dances with no rhythm
none of that for her
leaning all the time
dizzy as she runs
a Mona Lisa smile
she is unaware
of how beautiful

she’s such an awkward girl
she has no past
she’s such an awkward girl
walks into walls of glass

says hi to everyone
even when she doesn’t know
who they are
or who she is
or why her dress
does not quite fit
the look of all the other girls
but so beautiful

she’s such an awkward girl
she makes us laugh
she’s such an awkward girl
walks into walls of glass

she’s leaving yesterday
but here she is
again at the bar
buying drinks for strangers
unaware
of how this can be read
but her innocence
so beautiful

she’s such an awkward girl…
