You're My Girl
Mark Diamond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me does he know your
You're laying here with me cause
You're heart's inside my hand but
You're too afraid to leap

Tell me does he know the way you look at me, no
And she said
I, oh I've gotta let you go
I, oh I've gotta let you go

Tell me does he write you
A song called you're my girl
Or sing about you every night
All around this world

Tell me does he hold you
The way I use to
Oh no

I, oh I've gotta let you go
I, oh I've gotta let you go

When it's late and you can't fall asleep
And you've had a little too much to drink
You give me a call
You say I just wanna hear your voice
Please don't hang up the phone

You whisper I might've wrong
I said darling I'm already gone

I, oh I've gotta let you go




I, oh I've gotta let you go
I, oh I've gotta let you go

Line by Line Meaning

Tell me does he know your
Do you share the same connection with him that you share with me?


You're laying here with me cause
You chose to be with me instead of him


You're heart's inside my hand but
I have control over your heart


You're too afraid to leap
You are scared to take the risk in being with me completely


Tell me does he know the way you look at me, no
Does he know how special and intimate our connection is?


I, oh I've gotta let you go
I understand that I need to move on from this relationship


Tell me does he write you
Does he express his love for you through his art?


A song called you're my girl
A song that is dedicated to only you


Or sing about you every night
Does he think of you when he is going to bed?


All around this world
Does he share his love for you with everyone?


Tell me does he hold you
Does he embrace you with the same love that I used to?


The way I use to
The way I used to embrace and cherish you


When it's late and you can't fall asleep
When you are having trouble sleeping at night


And you've had a little too much to drink
When you have had a bit too much alcohol to drink


You give me a call
You reach out to me for comfort


You say I just wanna hear your voice
All you want is to feel close to me


Please don't hang up the phone
You don't want the conversation to end


You whisper I might've wrong
You admit that you made a mistake


I said darling I'm already gone
I tell you that it is already too late


I, oh I've gotta let you go
I have to move on and let go of this relationship


I, oh I've gotta let you go
I understand the need to let go and move on


I, oh I've gotta let you go
I realize that holding on to this relationship is not healthy for either of us

Tell me does he know your
Your laying here with me cause
Your hearts inside my hand but
Your too afraid to leap

Tell me does he know the way you look at me, no
And she said

I, oh i've gotta let you go
I, oh i've gotta let you go

Tell me does he write you
A song called you're my girl
or sing about you every night
All around this world

Tell me does he hold you
The way I use to
Oh no

I, oh i've gotta let you go
I, oh i've gotta let you go

When its late and you can't fall asleep
And you've had a little too much to drink
You give me a call
You say I just wanna hear your voice
Please don't hang up the phone

You whisper I might've wrong
I said darlin i'm already gone

I, oh i've gotta let you go
I, oh i've gotta let you go x2
