Image of a Girl - Safaris, The (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Image of a Girl (Safaris, The, 1960). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-07-21. "Keeping the Oldies & Classics Alive"
"Image of a Girl," written by band mates Richard Clasky and Marvin Rosenberg, belongs to the one-hit-wonders the Safaris, who hit the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1960 landing at the no. 6 position on the chart (Whitburn, 2013). This was the Safaris' debut release, and although the band released a number of other singles in 1960 and 1961, only one other cracked the Billboard Hot 100, "The Girl With the Story In Her Eyes" that stalled at no. 85 in 1960 (A.

Lyrics:
As I lie awake resting from the day
I can hear the clock passing time away
Oh, I couldn't sleep for on my mind
Was the image of the girl I hope to find
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
I look straight up at the ceiling above
Thinking of the girl whom I will love
Oh, would it be soon when she exists?
The image of the girl I've always wished
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
I twisted and I turned, ooh, trying to sleep
But all I could do was only to weep
For I haven't found that image yet
Of all the girls that I have met
And now the clock is still passing time
And I know someday that she will be mine
I know she'll always bring me love
For she's the image of the girl I love
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh (image of a girl)
