Matt Cairns - You Were My Girl

A warm Friday night and I’m on your doorstep
Been waiting all week for tonight
Then all at once you’re standing before me
Looking so good I die
I know that I shouldn’t let myself get so high
But with you it’s like gravity doesn’t apply
Should’ve known it wouldn’t take too long
Why’d you have to go and break the spell
I was lost in a different world
Where nothing had changed but you were my girl
Why’d you have to go and say his name
And snap me right out of this fantasy
Couldn’t you please just let me pretend
That you’re not in love with him
We walk arm in arm laugh about the old times
And what are they doing these days
And even before we’ve seen a menu
I find myself drifting away
I know that its only gonna make it ten times worse
When your magic wears off and I crash down to earth
Should’ve known it couldn’t last for long
Why’d you have to go and break the spell
I was lost in a different world
Where nothing had changed but you were my girl
Why’d you have to go and say his name
And snap me right out of this fantasy
Couldn’t you please just let me pretend
That you’re not in love with him
I’m just the guy you call whenever he runs out and leaves you alone
You’ll never see me as more than a friend but something about you keeps pulling me in
Why’d you have to go and break the spell
I was lost in a different world
Where nothing had changed but you were my girl
Why’d you have to go and say his name
And snap me right out of this fantasy
Couldn’t you please just let me pretend
That you're not in love
Let me pretend that you’re not in love with him
