A pretty girl who walks along the avenue Another teenage dream by chance to meet She waits around and wonders what she's gonna do And takes a look at life from in the street
For oh, so many years he's waited patiently And now the restless feelin' gets him down He sees her there and lights another cigarette And wonders if she'll ever shake away this town
She makes believe she's innocent She likes to tell them all that she doesn't understand And anything that troubles her, She puts it out of mind, living in a wonderland So life again deals out a little mystery She knows she's only livin' in a fantasy
So, bored again, she switches on the radio And dancin' round the room, she feels a fool A favourite record from a long, long time ago Reminds her of a boy she used to know in school
But still she says she's innocent She likes to tell them all that she doesn't understand And anything that troubles her She puts it out of mind, livin' in a wonderland Oh, it's hard to tell her dreams from her reality She says she's only livin' in a fantasy Yes, she's only livin' in a fantasy
