My Girl to Me

Go ahead and let your hands stay entwined

I swear I could not possibly mind

And when she lets down her guard

Don't kiss her too hard

She's sure to repay in kind

Don't let your courtesy last too long

My love blooms when I know it's gone

So if I'm in the room

It should be fair to assume:

You can both act how you want

And I won't cross the line you drew

Cause I'm not here to compete

Oh and I don't know what she tells you

But she's still my girl to me

She's good with quick goodbyes

And whenever she rolls her eyes

That's her admission of guilt

On the temper she built

And for me that's her most familiar side

I'm always watching my bridges burn

But if she didn't leave then she can't return

And I don't know you too well

But it's not too hard to tell

I miss her but I'm not concerned

And I'm glad to see that someone stayed

I don't want to see her grieve

But it doesn't matter what you say

She is still my girl to me

Oh that's the way my sister might give a kiss

Oh, how I feel so passively missed

And she says in your ear, as if I wasn't here

The quixote knows who he is

Oh, call me names if it comforts you

There are worst things I could be

But it doesn't matter if it isn't true-

She is still my girl to me
