Story Behind The Song
Just a stream of consciousness
running in the back of my feeble mind. Every guy has heard that voice. No chance but, what the hell, give it a shot and go down in glorious flames.
Song Description
This is what is going on in some guy's head as he trys to figure out how to approach a girl who is way out of his league and he knows it. That isn't going to stop him, though, oh no. There is no explaining hope and disallusionment.

Lyrics
A Quite Remarkable Woman
©J. D. Carroll
Creative Ventures Music, Inc. ASCAP
She's got a smile thats disconcerting and a style thats just plain rude
You don't know if shes flirting, you don't know what shes up to.
But still you want to meet her and you want to take her home.
You don't know exactly how to treat her. Certainly not like any other girl that you've known.
She's A Quite Remarkable Woman, Who'd rather be any place else
A Quite Remarkable Woman. One look in her eyes and you're under her spell. Oh well.
She seems to sense you apprehension. She means to make you wait all day.
Its all way beyond your comprehension but you don't care you just wait.
Because you really want to meet her and you want to take her home
You don't know exactly how to treat her. Certainly not like any other girl that you've known.
She's A Quite Remarkable Woman, Who'd rather be any place else
A Quite Remarkable Woman. One look in her eyes and you're under her spell. Oh well.
She never makes her statements questions. She doesn't ask if "Ya know"
Ignores all cliched suggestions. Outrageous antics leave her cold.
But you really want to meet her and you want to take her home.
You don't know exactly how to treat her. Certainly not like any other girl that you've known.
She's A Quite Remarkable Woman, Who'd rather be any place else
A Quite Remarkable Woman. One look in her eyes and you're under her spell. Oh well.
