lyrics

(Chorus)
Chelsea, Chelsea girl,
Welcome to my world
You’re welcome to my world
Chelsea girl…

But my timing’s always off
Seems that the damage was done before I’d begun
To notice of the cost
All your charms have charged
On the hearts of all the boys on the job
Chelsea girl, Ocean pearl of a girl
Won’t you please give me the time of day
Give me a taste... Show me the way
(Chorus)
So I wait, keep my cool
As I watch them all drool like fools all over you
But Pavlov’s got nothing on this dog
So I’ll choose my words wisely to cut through the fog
That’s grown thick as a brick
But it’s no easy trick
I may not be the prince you had in mind
If I can get inside your mind I’ll make you mine
(Chorus)
Now I’m lost in your sweet Chelsea ways
And I marvel with wonder how you slave everyday
To earn your pay, and make your way
Through this world that never seems to care
But I care. I dare to care. And I dare to compare
All the secrets we could share
Under the covers… hiding as lovers…
(Chorus)
