lyrics

YOU SHOULD BE MY GIRL

Music & Lyrics by Jason Yudoff

What you’ve got that no one knows
An escape, a place to go
Even when the clouds roll in you’ve got your private sun
Come on baby, take my hand
Blink twice if you understand
If you want to cry when the lights go dim
I won’t tell anyone

Because when I look into your eyes
I see the love that’s passed you by
Baby, you should be my girl
I know you won’t give yourself away
But there’s no price I wouldn’t pay
Baby, you should be my girl

I could whisper in your ear
Tell you what you want to hear
I could make sweet love to you ‘til morning comes around
Come on baby, let’s get high
Put away our alibis
Then there’s nothing you could say to ever bring me down

It’s not that you don’t pose a challenge
I can see you love to play hard to get
I know you’ve been hurt before but baby what I’ve got in store
I promise I’ll make you forget

So hard to get to know yourself
Through the eyes of someone else
Who are you supposed to be when you get left alone
Now it’s time to change your mood
Your situation or attitude
I just want to be there for you
So let me take you home
