"Conversation [If I Was Your Girlfriend]"
  by Maxine


You act like I don't already know
how you feel,
but you don't have to say it for me to
know what's real...
You keep your "gangsta" tight and tell me this
doesn't mean a thing,
but baby I can feel your spirit and that's not the
song your heart sings....

.

You wanna make me believe it doesn't matter
and pretend you're never jealous,
But I see the look before you turn away
from watching another get near this...
And how you stare at me when you
think I don't notice how deep,
And the way you caress my skin when you
think I'm fast asleep...

.

.

Stop fighting what you feel for me...
There's no reason to yield with me...
I'll give your heart all that it needs...
Erase the scars of her previous bad deeds...
.

I'll make your body feel the elation of love...
and dose after dose, you'll never get enough...
Calm all your fears as soon as you feel my touch....
Wrap you tight in my arms if it overwhelms too much...
.

I'll hold your heart when it gets too heavy...
be best friend and confidant but only if you let me....
And when we make love that's when you'll see
what it feels like to experience the total passion of my being....

.

.

.

So...
Give in to me Baby...
and
let this thing be...
Me and you
you and me
and when it scares you,
Just ....
.

.
And let the depth of my love comfort you...
.
Take all this emotion in...
Let the heating of your furnace begin...
Your heart will never want again,
if you let me be your Girlfriend....
