lyrics

Not your girlfriend (S Rhatigan© P Thornally BMG)

Now I’m not your girlfriend
Not the one to hold you
Not the one to hold you up
Not the one to hold you down
Not the one to wake you
Not the one to make you think
Not the one to make you quiver
Not the one to make you shiver
Now I’m not your girlfriend
Not yours

Not the one who’s there
Not the one who’s there after
Not the one in the next chapter
Not the one you want
Not the one who wanted two
Not the one to see you through
Not the one who’ll see through you
Not the one you’ll lie to
Not the one who’ll lie for you
Not the one who’s lying in your arms

Now I’m not your girlfriend
Not your girlfriend and that is fine
Now I’m not your girlfriend
I just hope you realise
If I’m not yours you’re not mine

Now I’m not your girlfriend
Not the one you’ll keep
Not the one to keep you waiting
Not the one you’re over rating
Not the back you’ll scratch
Not the monkey on your back
Not the one you’re giving presents
Not the one who’s past forgiveness
Not the one you’re tied to
Not the one who’ll tire you
Not the one who’s trying just to hard

Now I’m not your girlfriend
Not your girlfriend and that is fine
Now I’m not your girlfriend
I just hope you realise
If I’m not yours you’re not mine

I’ll be the one who’s laughter rings on past our time
I’ll be the one who’s picture reminds you of better times
