(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



Never thought I'd ever wind up in a daze like this

Never thought I'd ever find myself wondering how you kiss

I see you nearly everyday, and everyday I lose my nerve

That I 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



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 all the times that I've been near you, now I can't get near enough



Oh, 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 then you could notice me

Then I'd be more to you, oh, I just wanna 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
