Girlfriend, that man you got ain't no good. Trust me, I'm your best friend so you know I only want you to know the truth.
I'm actually a lyricist who has been perfecting the craft for a number of years. Over the course the past several years, I've had the pleasure of working with some very talented individuals who have done a wonderful job of bringing my lyrics to life, vocally and instrumentally.
Most everything featured on this site is in Demo format, as we work to locate the perfect singer for that perfect song.
Let's let the music tell the rest of the story. . . .
Story behind the song
What sometimes happens between friends. Just hopefully both will listen. Rebekkah Hopper did a nice arrangement. This song is actually a duet, but she did it solo demo which still ain't too bad.
Lyrics
I know youre not feeling the same
And thats why Im so glad you came
Youve had some things you want to discuss
Seems theyve been driving a wedge between us
Oh really? So you feel hes all wrong
No wonder youve kept quiet for so long
But, let me assure you, youre completely off base
Cant you see determination written over my face?
But girlfriend. . .
No, hes for real.
(Time will tell)
He knows the deal.
(Time will tell)
This is not just a dream.
(Time will tell)
Things are as they seem.
(Time will tell)
Yes, hes still here.
(Time will tell)
Things are as they appear.
(Time will tell)
Yes, he is most sincere.
(Time will tell)
Thats why Im keeping him near.
(Time will tell)
Yes, time will tell
He knows me so well
So tell me, is there something youve heard
Im not worried so tell me every juicy word
You should know by now jealous people will talk
Instead of listening, tell em to take a walk
Now, Im wondering just what kind of friend are you?
Instead of happy, youd rather see me blue?
Dont tell me theres envy inside of you?
Forget it; all this nonsense is irritating me too.
Thats not it, girl. . . .
(Repeat Chorus)
Sit back and listen, its my turn to speak
Wasnt he missing several days last week?
Im not one to gossip, but I believe what I see
Its you hes playing
Last week, he was hittin on me
My friend, Im telling the truth
Soon his color and yours will be blue
What a fool hes making of you
Girl, thats why Im saying. . .
(Repeat Chorus)
