The Shadows Lyrics
"I Met A Girl"

I met a girl once, I thought she was the girl for me
I was so taken by her personality
I met a girl once, who took my heart and love away
She looked an angel's vision walking through the day

I took her to parties, bought her everything I could
I treated her just like a queen
I told her I loved her, marry her I said I would
Didn't realize just what a fool I'd been

I met a girl once, she did me wrong behind my back
Then when I found out, I felt like my heart would crack
I met a girl once, she taught me what I had to learn
That if love's cruel, broken hearts are what you learn

I took her to parties, bought her everything I could
I treated her just like a queen
I told her I loved her, marry her I said I would
Didn't realize just what a fool I'd been

I met a girl once, she did me wrong behind my back
Then when I found out, I felt like my heart would crack
I met a girl once, she taught me what I had to learn
That if love's cruel, broken hearts are what you learn
