[Verse 1]
When the summer days live to bore you
And the river lies long before you
And the one that you love ignores you
I'll be your girl
[Verse 2]

I could be your man
But I'd be that much more
And more
[Verse 4]
So if you're ever feeling less your time due
Like someone bereft and lied to
And you never need a guy to guide you
I'll be your girl
I'll be your girl
I'll be your girl
