She's an Uptown girl
I, a ghetto child
We're familiar
But our hearts are far apart
Paper vendor with a big dream
Eminent lady with a good heart
So elegant and down to earth
All i long for in life
She pulls over by my side
Same spot, everyday for dailies

Hi honey...
Not to me, she's on phone
How i wish i was at the other end receiving
Does he really need her like i do?
What a question
Go get a life
Not living yet?
My mouth is a coward
Good morning - all it could manage to utter
If only my heart could speak ...

I'm just a mere dreamer
We're living in two different worlds
Life is beyond a fairytale love of yesterday
The beauty and the beast
Nope! I'm not a beast... Just a commoner
Even when The Sun's back cover headline reads - HE NEEDS YOU
I thought i was passing a message
See you tomorrow Yinka and off she went again
Oh! She called out my name
But tomorrow's not the best word i wish to hear
Tomorrow - sounds like next life to come
