Girlfriend

You wear your hair
Like it's your best accessory
And I don't want to
Ever have to compete with that
And I know you'd be
Nothing but excessively sweet
And cherish me, sing to me, love me
But...

I can't belong
To anybody else right now
Though it is not much of an excuse
I can't belong
To anybody else when I've got
So much figuring out to do.

I don't wanna be a girlfriend
I don't want to talk about my feelings yeah
I don't wanna be some girlfriend oh
I don't want to have to explain what I'm thinking.

I go alone
To watch stupid romance movies
And I sit, wishing,
It was your arms wrapped around me
And I just deny
That all I want is a piece of you
But I guess it's true, don't wanna talk on the phone,
Don't want attachments, don't wanna be your girlfriend.

I just can't belong
To anybody else right now
Though it is not much of an excuse
I can't belong
To anybody else when I've got
So much figuring out to do.

I don't wanna be a girlfriend
I don't want to talk about my feelings yeah
I don't wanna be some girlfriend oh
I don't want to have to explain what I'm thinking.

Is it wrong for me to want you
Just for a day
I don't want to be that kind of girl
But I can't help myself.

I can't belong
To anybody else right now
Like a girlfriend
I don't want to talk about my feelings yeah
I don't wanna be some girlfriend oh
I don't want to have to explain what I'm thinking
yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
