[Verse 1]
Saw you across the room
With your lipstick, cherry red
You looked kinda blue
Must've been something he said
[Pre-Chorus]
Love shouldn't go
It don't make you wish it would
Darlin', you know
He don't treat you like he should
[Chorus]
If you were my girl (My girl)
I would never run away
My girl (My girl)
I would kiss you every day
In every way, you'd be my baby
Yeah, you'd be my all, you'd be my world (World)
If you were my girl
[Verse 2]
I said, "Hello" and you smiled so beautiful
Talked for awhile, you're a classic original
[Pre-Chorus]
Love shouldn't go (Shouldn't go)
It don't make you wish it would (Wish it would)
Darlin', you know
He don't treat you like he should
[Chorus]
If you were my girl (My girl)
I would never run away
My girl (My girl)
I would kiss you every day
In every way, you'd be my baby
Yeah, you'd be my all, you'd be my world (World)
If you were my girl
[Post-Chorus]
(My girl, my girl, my girl)
[Bridge]
Darlin', you know
My darling
[Chorus]
If you were my girl (My girl)
I would never run away
My girl (My girl)
I would kiss you every day
In every way, you'd be my baby
Yeah, you'd be my all, you'd be my world (World)
You'd be my world
If you were my girl (My girl)
I would never run away
My girl (My girl)
I would kiss you every day
In every way, you'd be my baby
Yeah, you'd be my all, you'd be my world (World)
You'd be my world
If you were my girl
If You Were My Girl was written by Alex Sampson & John Nathaniel.
If You Were My Girl was produced by John Nathaniel.
Alex Sampson released If You Were My Girl on Fri Aug 02 2024.
“If You Were My Girl” is the second single from my forthcoming EP. When creating this song, one of my friends was being treated poorly and I felt that if she was my girl, I would treat her better than that. I love this song so much and I think it’s a perfect follow up to ‘Pretty Baby.’
