Lyrics

Will You Be My Girlfriend?

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I didn’t know how to ask

Un-awkwardly

I didn’t know how to broach it

I haven't known how to do this informally

Not cut out for dropping masks

I guess I give and you give back

Is that right?

Guess I listen and you give feedback

Is that right?

I guess I call when I need help

Is that right?

Will you be my girlfriend?

I haven’t worn my heart on sleeves

And been rewarded

With and openheartedness

I haven’t felt I had the right to

Be supported

With a golden tenderness

I guess I risk and you risk back

Is that right?

I guess I share and you share back

Is that right?

Guess I uplift you when you crack

Is that right?

Will you be my girlfriend?

Can I lean on your shoulder

Would you join me in some pact

Will you see me as your sister

Can we love enough to offer that

I guess I thought that you would laugh

And be daunted

And think me clingy and too much

I thought this much too vulnerable

And you'd not cut me slack

And think me intolerable

I guess I fall and you stay intact

Is that right?

I guess you hear me and won’t attack me

Is that right?

Guess I reach out and you reach back

Is that right?

Will you be my girlfriend?

Guess I divulge and you wink back

Is that right?

I guess you cry I pet your back

Is that right?

I guess I text and you text back

is that right?

Will you be my girlfriend?
