Girlfriend in the City lyrics

I've been watching you like a hawk

I know you're hiding something

When we're together I can hardly breathe

I feel like it's gonna spill out of me what I believe

I would rather wait till it looks so bad

That you can't no longer hide it from me

I would rather wait for the chance to catch you red handed

You've got a girlfriend in this city

You got a girlfriend in this city

Oh, is your girlfriend pretty?

Does she look like me?

Does she blow your mind all the time?

Or are you just passing time?

You've got a girlfriend in this city

And it's not me

I stay at home on the other side of town

Waiting all out when you bring me flowers

You are far away and what I don't know won't hurt me, but it do

And worse, it's killing you, all the guilt inside, I can see it, it's true

You've got a girlfriend in this city

You got a girlfriend in this city

Oh, is your girlfriend pretty

Does she look like me

And I'm dying to know what she's like

Although I know it won't make this right

You've got a girlfriend in this city

And it's not me

Does she wear her hair up or her hair down?

Is she quiet or is she loud?

Does she dress up or she dress down?

Why are you keeping her around?

Who is she to you?

Who is she to you?

Who is she to you?

Who is she to you?

Who is she to you?

Who is she to you?

You've got a girlfriend in this city

You've got a girlfriend in this city

Oh, I hear your girlfriend's pretty

I wanna see

Does she blow your mind? All the time?

Or are you just passing time?

You've got a girlfriend in this city

And it's not me...
