But... You Got A Girl

By: Latisha Ebony Sade Ellison

Is it the twinkle in my eyes?
the way i move my thighs?
the way i shake my hips?
the softness of my lips?
Or maybe the shine of my hair
that makes you stop and stare
and wonder, "how did i let her go?"
I guess you'll never know.

When i walk across the room
your eyes are on my stride-
wondering how i walk with so much pride.
My laughter engulfs you,
you swim in my smile;
There's no doubt in the fact
that you love my style.
Now it amazes me
why you do this to yourself;
loving me when you're supposed to be
loving someone else...
what we had or what was supposed to be is gone
whose fault is that- mine or yours?

Yeah, you got a girl-
that's what you keep telling me
but we both know who you really want
...and that's me!
