Lyrics

(Source: Am I Not Your Girl?)

	We used to go out walking hand in hand.
	You told me all the big things you had planned.
	It wasn't long till all your dreams came true.
	Success put me in second place with you.

	You have no time to love me anymore,
	Since fame and fortune knocked upon your door.
	Now I spend all my evenings all alone.
	Success has made a failure of our home.

	If we could share an evening now and then,
	Perhaps we'd find true happiness again.
	You never hold me like you used to do.
	It's funny what success has done to you.

	You have no time to love me anymore,
	Since fame and fortune knocked upon your door.
	Now I spend all my evenings all alone.
	Success has made a failure of our home.

	I've never changed.
	I'm still the same.
	Stop what you're thinking.
	You're killing me.
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
	Am I not your girl?
