Lyrics

I met someone tonight who touched my heart
I asked her to dance, she said that sounded good
I kept her company as she walked home
I wanted to know her and she understood
I felt in love and I was very shy
I shook her hand and she gave me her number
I felt afraid as she walked to her door
Then she turned and said she wanted to see me some more
I ran back home just as fast as I could
I knew I wouldn't sleep for a week or two
I'll make some coffee that I couldn't drink
I knew if I won her, my dreams would come true
All of a sudden my eyes started to cry
Her magic number was nowhere to be found
My heart was screaming when my mind realized
The wind had come and stole it when I wrote it down
Have you ever lost your number, it's like losing your world
Have you slept on a cloud when there's thunder
Have you ever lost the number of a magic girl
(I need a shoulder) I lost her number
(I need a shoulder) I lost her number
(I need a shoulder) I lost her number
Have you ever lost your number, it's like losing your world
Have you slept on a cloud when there's thunder
Have you ever lost the number of a magic girl
(I need a shoulder) I lost her number
(I need a shoulder) I lost her number
(I need a shoulder) I lost her number
It took me three weeks just to find her door
The tears in my eyes had made it hard to discover
I found it twice and then I wondered once more
Was she at home? Did she have a new number?
I broke the door down and I choked inside
She'd moved forever and I'd never find her
An empty house but she'd left something behind
I fell as I stared at the tragic reminder
On every wall in every room to my surprise
She'd hung a picture of her two beautiful rainbow eyes
