Gigi, am I a fool without a mind
Or have I merely been too blind to realize?
Oh Gigi, why you've been growin' up before my eyes?

Gigi, you're not at all that funny awkward little girl I knew
Oh no, overnight there's been a breathless change in you

Oh Gigi, why you were tremblin' on the brink
Was I out yonder somewhere blinkin' at a star?
Oh Gigi, have I been standin' up too close or back too far?

When did your sparkle turn to fire
And your warmth become desire?
Oh, what miracle has made you the way you are?

Oh Gigi, why you were tremblin' on the brink
Was I out yonder somewhere blinkin' at a star?
Oh Gigi, have I been standin' up too close or back too far?

When did your sparkle turn to fire
And your warmth become desire?
Oh, what miracle has made you the way you are?
