I'M NOT THAT GiRL

Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy world
He could be that boy but I'm not that girl

Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy but I'm not that girl

Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what might have been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in

Blithe smile, lithe limb
She is winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl, that's the girl he chose
And heaven knows I'm not that girl

Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and pearl
There's a girl I know, he loves her so

I'm not that girl
