A Girl Like Me
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.
What you get is what you see
Let me tell you basically
This is how it's gotta be
Can't - with a girl like me
Can't change my destiny
So if you wanna get next to me
Gotta treat me faithfully
Can't - with a girl like me
Two o' clock, I'm all alone
Hear you on the telphone
Telling me another line
Said that you'd be working late
Asking me if I could wait
Run that by me one more time
Keep me hanging on the line
But you're running out of time
Might have been a fool for love, but I'm not blind
If you're looking for a play thing
Every other day thing
I am not the one for you
I'm not looking for a part time
Give me half your heart and
Tell me what you're gonna do
Look into my eyes, let me tell you one more time
I need everything, that's how it's gonna be
With a girl like me
With a girl like me
Broken rings and promises
Gotta be much more than this
I don't have to compromise
Been around enough to know
When it's time to let it go
Do I have to say goodbye
Gonna make it clear to you
Only one thing left to do
Better understand cos every word is true
If you're looking for a play thing
Every other day thing
I am not the one for you (yeah yeah)
I'm not looking for a part time
Give me half your heart and
Tell me what you're gonna do
Look into my eyes, let me tell you one more time
I need everything, that's how it's gonna be
With a girl like me (oh yeah)
With a girl like me (yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah
What you get is what you see
Let me tell you basically
This is how it's gotta be
Can't - with a girl like me (with a girl like me)
Can't change my destiny
So if you wanna get next to me
Gotta treat me faithfully
Can't - with a girl like me
Gonna make it clear to you
Only one thing left to do
Better understand cos every word is true
If you're looking for a play thing
Every other day thing
I am not the one for you (yeah yeah)
I'm not looking for a part time
Give me half your heart and
Tell me what you're gonna do
Look into my eyes, let me tell you one more time
I need everything, that's how it's gonna be
With a girl like me (that how it's gotta be)
With a girl like me (yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Oh-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
