Lyrics

A Girl Like You

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 get so disturbed, I'm all alone

I feel so funny talking on the phone

I fall apart when I hear you speak

Believe me girl, I just feel weak

I wonder how I got involved with a girl like

You want to tell me that I'm not you're kind of guy

You break the news and I break down and cry, I cry

You're having fun, well that's all right

I'm too weak to put up a fight

I wish you'd just tell what was wrong

Instead of leading my on

I get so disturbed when I'm all alone

I feel so funny talking on the phone

I fall apart when I hear your speak

Believe me girl, I just feel weak

I wish you'd just tell me what was wrong

Instead of leading me on

I try to call

(Call on the phone)

I try to call

(But nobody's home)

I wonder why

(You lead my along)

I wonder how I got involved with a girl like you
