Girlfriend
The Choices Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Would you be my Girlfriend? [Repeat: x3]
I like you, right
Would you be my Girlfriend?

I don't know why you care
He doesn't even know you're there
Cause he don't love your eyes
And he don't love your smile
Girl you know that ain't fair

In the middle of the night
Is he going to be by your side
Or will he run and hide
You don't know cuz things ain't clear
And baby when you cry
Is he gonna stand by your side
Does the man even know you're alive
I got an idea

Why don't you be my girlfriend
I'll treat you good
I know you hear your friends when they say
You should
Cause if you were my girlfriend
I'd be your shining star
The one who'll show you where you are
Girl you should be my girlfriend

Does he know what you feel
Are you sure that t's real
Does he ease your mind
Or does he break your stride
Did you know that love could be a shield

In the middle of the night correcting
Is he going to be BY your side
Or will he run and hide
You don't know cause things ain't clear
And baby when you cry
Is he gonna stand by your side
Does the man even know you're alive
I got an idea

Why don't you be my girlfriend
I'll treat you good
I know you hear your friends when they say
You should
Cause if you were my girlfriend
I'd be your shining star
The one who'll show you where you are
Girl you should be my girlfriend

Ever since I saw your face
Nothing in my life has been the same
I'll walk around just saying your name
Without you, my world would end, yeah
I've looked around this whole, damn place
And everything says you were meant to be
My girlfriend, oh

Why don't you be my girlfriend
I'll treat you good
I know you hear your friends when they say
You should
Cause if you were my girlfriend
I'd be your shining star
The one who'll show you where you are
Girl you should be my girlfriend





Girl you should be My girlfriend [Repeat: x5]
My girlfriend
