    Story Behind the Song
    Glenn wrote this song after seeing Holly Hunter in a movie. The line was somewhere in the movie?
    As with most of the HJ songs, Glenn brought most of the lyrics and some chord patterns to the Brokaw basement rehearsal space and we fleshed it out from there.
    This was the first track we recorded in the studio and it is the first take - vocals, keys, acoustic guitar and percussion were dubbed later.

    Lyrics
    "Just a little off the top," she said,
    of her chestnut hair.
    She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen,
    I swear.

    My heart skipped a beat
    When she walked onto the screen
    She's a thousand miles away
    and she doesn't even know my name
    But that's OK
    I'll just admire her from afar
    I think today
    I'll write her a little letter on my guitar.

    If she ever hears this song
    She'll know it's written just for her
    Her beauty chills my soul
    Like the winter snow, so pure
    [copyright 1999 - Glenn Kemp]
