Lyrics
Girl Like You
by Wilfred Kozub
I wanna girl like you
I wanna girl I can tell my secrets to
I do
I wanna wanna girl like you
I wanna lover like me
You?re the one who can drop me down to my knees,
I mean,
I wanna wanna lover like me
You?re not like all the other ones
I?m glad it?s true
All I wanted was an ordinary angel and
I - I found you!
I wanna girl like you
You?re the one I can spill my secrets to
Mm mm
I wanna wanna girl like you
(instrumental section)
Oo the evening air so cool
Roll down my window
Catch a glimpse
Of YOU . . .
I wanna girl like you
You?re the one who won?t make my summer turn blue (oo oo)
I wanna lover like me
You?re the one who can drop me down to my . . . knees
(gotta have a girl like you, gotta have a girl like you)
