A Girl Like You

(album: Lonely River - 2009)

Well I see you talking to your girlfriends
With your hair blowing in the wind
And everybody sees your heart broke
'Cause the last guy he did you in
I see the way that you're looking at me
I think I might have a chance
If you're still here at the end of the night
I might ask for a dance

I've cried myself to sleep, been told, "Boy you ain't no good"
I've never been a cheating kind but there's been times I could
And I've had the love of my life run off with my best friend
But the only thing that keeps me holding on is a girl like you in the end

Well I've never been the one to two step
But this is my foot in
And I could tell you all about me
And how it all came to an end
You try to hide your wounded pride
And cover up your scars
You keep blaming yourself for his mistakes
And the reason it all fell apart

I've cried myself to sleep, been told, "Boy you ain't no good"
I've never been a cheating kind but there's been times I could
And I've had the love of my life run off with my best friend
But the only thing that keeps me holding on is a girl like you in the end

And jealousy can make people do some things and we don't understand
But before you start to break down let me take your hand

'Cause I've cried myself to sleep, been told, "Boy you ain't no good"
I've never been a cheating kind but there's been times I could
And I've had the love of my life run off with my best friend
But the only thing that keeps me holding on is a girl like you in the end
Is a girl like you in the end
