I fell in love with the girl in the picture
  That I used to keep
  Carried her round in the back of my pocket
  She was always with me
  I imagine that I was a man of importance
  And she had a fancy for me
  And I use to dream she would call
  Crying her eyes out
  She had an obsession with me
  I was the love of her life
  And she was all mine
  The girl in the Life magazine
    The first time I we met in an aisle
  At the market
  She was staring at me
  I knew even then we would share
  Something special
  And it was like chemistry
  I fell in love from the moment I saw her
  So I took her straight home with me
  And that's where I'd dream
  She would step right out of the picture
  And spend a whole evening with me
  And oh how she hated to go
  Back to her picture
  The girl in the Life magazine
    All of my friends used to laugh
  Said I was certifiably mad
  Till the day she came
  And she blew them away
  And asked me if I'd be her man
  It seems that she went and fell
  In love with my letters
  Says she's been looking for me
  So the story ends well
  We end up together
  The girl in the Life magazine
