LOVES TO BE

Somewhere in time, she'll come to realize
that there's so much more to life than me.
It's hard to believe,
but until then we'll stay the best of friends
with the benefits we both need
constantly,
because she
loves to be my woman. She really loves to be my girl,
and I swear there is nobody who loves me more in the world.
I'm bounded by my heart, and held against my will,
'cause when she looks at me, I can see it's such a thrill
that she loves to be my girl.
Honey, I'm a man who made some other plans
long before there was you and me.
Honestly.
Play another part. I could see it from the start
where the clashing of our wants will lead.
Our destiny
can not be
that you love to be my woman, and you love to be my girl,
'cause I swear I see it coming when I swore I never will
take part in someone's dream when it is not my own.
Don't take it personally, but we come from different worlds,
where you love to be my girl.

And she loves to be my woman. Yes, she loves to be my girl,
but I fear she found the wrong one to obsess with and convert,
'cause everytime we kiss, somewhere there is a missed
opportunity to ask her why she still
loves to be my girl.
I don't know, and never will.
But when she looks at me, I can see I'm her whole world,
and she loves to be my girl.
