Girlfriend

Don't tell me to stop crying
 please just hold me while i do
 soothe me with your silence
 and just cradle me to you
 don't push me for my reasons
 or expect me to explain
 how can i in five minutes shift
 a lifetime's hidden pain
 Don't tell your girlfriend about me
 cos your girlfriend won't like girls like me
 don't tell your girlfriend about me
 if you just hold me... hold me... hold me
 I went to see a psychic and
 i paid for good advice
 he said "forget a romance
 'til you've sorted out your life."
 be your own mother and your father
 and your sister and brother
 and even try to crack the art
 of being your own lover...
 Don't tell your girlfriend about me
 cos your girlfriend won't like girls like me
 don't tell your girlfriend about me
 if you just hold me... hold me... hold me
 In my darkest hour you'd be mine
 these wildest dreams
 are no crime or are they, girlfriend?
 coming from a place of need
 not one of abundance
 you see he told me, girlfriend
 Don't tell me to stop crying
 please just hold me while i do
 soothe me with your silence
 and just cradle me to you
 don't push me for my reasons
 or expect me to explain
 how come i say i'm happy
 to be on my own again?
