"I Want To Be Your Girlfriend"
--Mary Chapin Carpenter

I want to be your girlfriend, I want to be your new love
I want to be the one that you can't get enough of
I want to be your girlfriend, nobody else's but yours
I want to be the one who you'll do anything for

I never thought I'd ever wind up in a daze like this
I never thought I'd ever find myself wondering how you kiss
I see you near me every day, and every day I lose my nerve
That I'd built up the night before rehearsing every single word

I want to be your girlfriend, I want to be your new love
I want to be the one that you can't get enough of
I want to be your girlfriend, nobody else's but yours
I want to be the one who you'll do anything for

You used to be just this guy I knew from that same old scene,
For all the time that I've known you, just now I'm noticing
That everything there is to feel feels worse than any teenage crush
And for all the times that I've been near you, now I can't get near enough

I want to be your girlfriend, I want to be your new love
I want to be the one that you can't get enough of
I want to be your girlfriend, nobody else's but yours
I want to be the one who you'll do anything for

I just keep on hoping that you're gonna see
If I could notice you there, you could notice me
Then I'd be more to you...
Oh, I just want to be--

I want to be your girlfriend, I want to be your new love
I want to be the one that you can't get enough of
I'm gonna be your girlfriend, nobody else's but yours
I want to be the one who you'll do anything for
