It must have broke your poor little heart
When the boys used to say
You looked better in the dark
But now they'd give all they learnt in school
To be somewhere, in the dark with you, oh yes, they would

The teacher would ask the questions
And you, would always raise your hand
But somehow you never got your turn
My eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn, oh yes they did

Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh homely girl
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh homely girl

There was a boy who used to sit beside you
Who'd like to hold that place his whole life through
Ooh, you were beautiful to me
You had a heart, no one could ever see, oh yes you did

Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh homely girl

I was the only one who offered
To carry your books
Took all the stares and laughter
And the dirty looks
'Cause I saw then what they see now
They all want to ask you for a date
They don't know how, they don't know how

Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman oh, yeah
Homely girl you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, ooh yea, ooh-hoo
You're a beautiful woman
