Julia Fordham - Girlfriend lyrics

please just hold me while I do

soothe me with your silence

and just cradle me to you

don't push me for my reasons

or expect me to explain

how can I in five minutes

shift a lifetime's hidden pain

CHORUS

don't tell your girlfriend about me

cause your girlfriend won't like girls like me

don't tell your girlfriend about me

if you just hold me

hold me

hold me

I went to see a psychic

and I paid for good advice

she said forget a romance

til you've sorted out your life

be your own father and your mother

and your sister and brother

and even try to crack the art

of being your own lover

CHORUS

in my darkest hour you'll be mine

least while these dreams are no crime

or are they

(girlfriend)

I'm in my proper place I believe

an overabundance

you see, you told me

(girlfriend)

don't tell me to stop crying

please just hold me while I do

soothe me with your silence

and just cradle me to you

don't push me for my reasons

or expect me to explain

how come I stay unhappy

til the ending of my pain

CHORUS
