The European Beauty - Figurine

june 7th 1995

a penthouse party on the upper east side

takin' chances, exchanging glances

passions in the air

his mixtape never sounded so good

attractin' all the women like he always knew it would

but one, one stood out

and that is what this song, this song is all about

he wants to get her number

he don’t even know her name

he’s feeling an attraction

and hopes she feels the same

a transatlantic journey

he’ll catch that first plane

love sometimes seems so easy

when dancin' in the rain

a suitcase, a ticket

it’s time to depart

doesn’t know what he’ll find

doesn’t know who she’ll be

love is gonna think things through

but then that’s what love’s supposed to do

she doesn’t really think that’s true

she doesn’t believe in happiness in twos

his touch is all she needs

it’s a safe place, it’s a safe place to be

he wants to get her number

he don’t even know her name

he’s feeling an attraction

and hopes she feels the same

a transatlantic journey

he’ll catch that first plane

love sometimes seems so easy when you forget that name

he’s looking for an answer

and finds it in her smile

she’s looking for security

he’ll do for a while

a european beauty

well worth a million miles

passion seems the sure thing

love is out of style

it glitters like a diamond

it draws in like the sun

she tells him that she wants him

who tells her that she’s the one

a kiss, a touch, an embrace

that doesn’t mean a thing

a one way love don’t hurt much

when you supplied the sting
