I Ll Be That Girl  lyrics

I`ll Be That Girl
Words & Music by Stephen Duffy & Steven Page 
If I were you (and I wish that I were you),
All the things I`d do to make myself turn blue
I suppose I`d start by removing all my clothes,
tie my pantyhose around my neck
I`ll be that girl -- and you would be right over
If I were a field, you would be in clover
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
And if I had a gun, there`d be no tomorrow
If you will not have me as myself,
perhaps as someone else
Perhaps as you I`ll be worth noticing
Then even a eunuch won`t resist
The magic of a kiss from such as me
I`ll be that girl -- and you would be right over
If I were a field, you would be in clover
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
If I had a gun, there`d be no tomorrow
It`s time to kick off your shoes,
learn how to choose sadness
It`s time to throw off those chains,
addle our brains with madness
`Cause we`ve got plenty of time
to grow old and die
But when at last your beauty`s faded
you`ll be glad that I have waited for you
When you`re done
with being beautiful and young
When that course is run, then come to me
I`ll be that girl -- and you would be right over
If I were a field, you would be in clover
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
If I had a gun, there`d be no tomorrow
