Nelly Furtado
Girlfriend in the City
[Verse 1]
I've been watching you like a hawk
I know you're hiding something
When we're together I can hardly breathe
I feel like it's gonna spill out of me what I believe
[Pre-Chorus]
I would rather wait till it looks so bad
That you can't no longer hide it from me
I would rather wait for the chance to catch you red handed
[Chorus]
You've got a girlfriend in this city
You got a girlfriend in this city
Oh, is your girlfriend pretty?
Does she look like me?
[Post-Chorus]
Does she blow your mind all the time?
Or are you just passing time?
You've got a girlfriend in this city
And it's not me
[Verse 2]
I stay at home on the other side of town
Waiting all out when you bring me flowers
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You are far away and what I don't know won't hurt me
But it do
And worse, it's killing you, all the guilt inside
I can see it, it's true
[Chorus]
You've got a girlfriend in this city
You got a girlfriend in this city
Oh, is your girlfriend pretty?
Does she look like me?
[Post-Chorus 2]
And I'm dying to know what she's like
Although I know it won't make this right
You've got a girlfriend in this city
And it's not me
[Bridge]
Does she wear her hair up or her hair down?
Is she quiet or is she loud?
Does she dress up or she dress down?
Why are you keeping her around?
Who is she to you? (Who is she to you?)
Who is she to you? (Who is she to you?)
Who is she to you, you, yeah
Who is she to you? (Who is she to you?)
Who is she to you? (Who is she to you?)
Who is she to you, you, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh, you've got a girlfriend in this city
You've got a girlfriend in this city
Oh, I hear your girlfriend's pretty
I wanna see
[Post-Chorus 1]
Does she blow your mind all the time?
Or are you just passing time?
You've got a girlfriend in this city
And it's not me
[Outro]
