A Girl Like Me lyrics

Hey you over there, know you gotta problem but dont dispair
see me, I had no soul, till I found myself with the rock & roll
There must be something that you're longing to be
give in to the rhythm, let the music
Free up your mind

[chorus]
Let the music free up your mind
and it will help you define
Cause it will give you a sign
ohhhh, let the music free up your mind
Free up your mind

Being with you
Longing for something to happen
Biting my tongue
Hoping to get a reaction
Atmosphere's tense
Heavy with anticipation
Don't leave me here
With only my imagination

Free me

[Chorus:]
Now Free me let me loose to love you
Yeah how i long to seduce you oh
Free me let me loose to love you Yeah how i long to seduce you now

How long can i
Continue to suffer in silence
My achin' heart

So don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
And Honey if I get restless
Baby you're not that kind

So don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Oh honey if you knock on my door
Ooh, I gave you my key

Woohooo, nobody knows it
Nobody Knoowhoas...
When I was down
I was your clown
Woohooo, nobody knows it
Nobody Knoowhoas...
Right from the start
I gave you my heart

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

Step right up and welcome to my show
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
It's a dangerous ride you gotta let yourself go
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
It's kinda like a rollercoaster wild and free
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
But if you want security there's nothing really guaranteed
Yeah-yeah, so come and play the game with me

Baby, baby, baby
Baby don't leave me
Ooh, please don't leave me
All by myself

I've got this yearning, burning
Yearning feelin' inside me
Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad

You came into my heart
Baby, Baby
So tenderly
With a burning love
That stings like a bee

Now that I surrender
So helplessly
You now wanna leave me
Ooh, you wanna leave me

Ooh, baby, baby

Baby baby baby

Stay away from my window
Stay away from my back door too
Disconnect the telephone line
Relax baby and draw that blind

Kick off your shoes and sit right down
Loosen off that pretty French gown
Let me pour you a good long drink
Ooh baby don't you hesitate, ah

Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
Cause I love you girl/boy
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now, nobody

I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean
Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box
Religion is the smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean, d-doo yeah

Choke me in the shallow waters
Before I get too deep

What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what
What I am is what I am

Ooh yeah

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

I trusted her with him
That's where the story begins
We talked of boys and men
They all came second then

I made a sacrifice
And trusted all her advice
There was no need to fight
Things were so simple then

One by one she broke her promises
I guess she thought that she could take my man
I just gotta let her know

Ooh, uh-huh, yeah

Something 'bout your friends are always there for you
Help you with your bedtime and they'll see you through
Being with a man is never quite the same
Cos we just have some fun and really play the game

I don't know where will go
But I know we're gonna start the show

Dancing on the town tonight
Nothing can stop us
You can see it in her eyes
That we're not gonna sleep tonight

I was going crazy
Seeing you around
And baby you're asking
Are we getting down

Cos I see you looking over at me
And I know you really like what you see, yeah yeah yeah

You better be careful
You better beware
Cos I'm on the lookout baby
And I will be there

Something in your eyes, yeah yeah
Something in your eyes
Something in your eyes, yeah yeah
Something in your eyes

Suddenly I realized

I've been there, done that
Ooh-ooh
(Yeah) been there, (yeah) done that
(I've been there, done that)

I gotta take some time
Say what's on my mind
Before I get too close to you
Cos I feel that I'm
About to cross the line
And there's no going back once I do

(So here's the key)
You've ever thought of falling so deep
Am I pushing you out of your day
(How do you feel)

Yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh

I see you in the darkness
I see you in the light
I see your eyes shining
In through the night

Make me feel, make me feel
Like I belong
Don't relieve me, you won't leave me here
All Alone

Cast your eyes
Like summer skies
Blue earth and the ocean
Clearer than the skies, yeah!

Sunshine on a rainy day (sunshine)
Makes my soul, makes my soul drip, drip, drip away

If I spell it O U T
Will you get the message finally
I don't wanna fight you see
But it's the end for you and me
Sorry that it had to be
But that's the reality
Do I have to spell it O U T for you to see

Dream on in your own little world
Keep thinking I'm your girl
Baby I wish you well
But boy the fact remains
My story's still the same
Hard as it is to tell

I've said it all a thousand times

What you get is what you see
Let me tell you basically
This is how it's gotta be
Can't - with a girl like me
Can't change my destiny
So if you wanna get next to me
Gotta treat me faithfully
Can't - with a girl like me

Two o' clock, I'm all alone
Hear you on the telephone
Telling me another line
Said that you'd be working late
Asking me if I could wait
Run that by me one more time

Well I know that you're with me when I'm sleeping
And I know that you hear me when I'm speaking
No I'm, not gonna fight it, and I, just can't deny it
Cos I know that it's something I believe in
And you made me listen
And you really showed me where to go
And you made me wonder
Who I am
You're making me high, high, high, high on love
You're making me high, high, high, high on love

I know that you can hear the rhythm of the rain
Although we're miles apart I know you feel my pain
I try to be so strong, I try to carry on
But since you left the sun don't seem to shine
My tears are falling on the words you wrote to me
I wish that somehow they could take me where I wanna be
It seems so long ago, you held me when I cried
For now I just pretend you're by my side, oh-oh yeah

If I told you how I feel about you
Would you say the same and
If I wrote it in a letter
Would you keep it or throw it away

I never thought I'd feel the way I'm feeling lately
When everything you seem to do just drives me crazy

Every waking day you take my breath away
With every word you say you take my breath away
You look at me that way, baby come what may

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, talk to me, can't you see
I'll help you work things out.
Oh, don't wanna be your enemy
And I don't want to scream and shout.

'Cos, baby, I believe in honesty
And then be strong and true.
I shouldn't have to say now, baby,
That I believe in you.

What took you so long
What took you all night
What took you forever to see I'm right
You know, I treat you so good;
