Miss Daisy Hawkins
Lyrics & music by
Rick Springfield and Matt Bissonette
Miss Daisy Hawkins
you dreamed of a life
Or did a life dream of
you
You were the girl with
kaleidoscope eyes
Chosen but pushed out
of view
Here at the altar
don't let courage falter
With something old,
borrowed and blue
Just pick up the rice,
heed McKenzie's advice
Don't do anything I
wouldn't do
Miss Daisy Hawkins I
know you can't hear me
Your life ended so
long ago
You should have been
legend right here in a mix
Lost to a whim way
back in '66
I want you to know I
remember you still
You'll meet face to
face with the fool on the hill
Daisy Hawkins
Miss Daisy Hawkins
time can be cruel
No porters with
looking-glass ties
(Looking-glass ties)
You took a trip on a
magical ship
Even magical ships can
capsize
Eleanor died at least
you were a bride
Though there was no
fortune and fame
(So) Leave the jar
I've got gas in the car
I will always remember
your name
Miss Daisy Hawkins I
know you can't hear me
Your life ended so
long ago
You should have been
legend right here in a mix
Lost to a whim way
back in '66
I want you to know I
remember you still
You'll meet face to
face with the fool on the hill
Daisy Hawkins
Where are you now,
hope you wear it with pride
You were there when
the song was begun
Remember inside you're
the Genesis bride
Walk with your face in
the sun
So many people so many
so lonely
I know that we all
feel the same
You were the girl with
the sun in her eyes
But Lucy she never
explained
I know it gets colder
when muses get older
(Oh so much colder)
When all of their
dreams don't come true
All of you lost girls
it caused so much pain
And all the boys feel
it too
Miss Daisy Hawkins I
know you can't hear me
Your life ended so
long ago
You should have been
legend right here in a mix
Lost to a whim way
back in '66
I want you to know I
remember you still
You'll meet face to
face with the fool on the hill
Daisy Hawkins
