Girl Next Door
I know when you're parents are fighting
I know when you're mad you get quiet
I can tell when you're lying
'Cause you're smiling at me
I know that your eyes are evergreen
I know that they change with the seasons
Not every girl gets to see them
But I've seen them for half of my life
Why would you want to find somebody new?
When I've grown up getting to know ya
(Okay)
I know when your birthday is, what your sister thinks
About every other girl you bring home
You got your mama's laugh and your looks from your dad
Your house it feels like home
Every time I try to fall for somebody else
I end up looking just over the fence
Hoping you'll notice
Maybe you'll notice
I've always been yours
I'm the girl next door
I know that your heart's had a hard go
We don't have to talk about her though
Your brother filled me in on everything
But I don't think he knows everything
Like how I know when your birthday is, what your sister thinks
About every other girl you bring home
You got your mama's laugh and your looks from your dad
Your house it feels like home
Every time I try to fall for somebody else
I end up looking just over the fence
Hoping you'll notice
Maybe you'll notice
I've always been yours
I'm the girl next door
The girl next door
I don't want to force it
Don't want to look desperate
Do you have to catch me in the window changing
For you to notice?
You can leave it or take it
If I was you I'd take it
'Cause I know when your birthday is, what your sister thinks
About every other girl you bring home
You got your mama's laugh and your looks from your dad
And to me you feel like home
Every time I try to fall for somebody else
I end up looking just over the fence
Hoping you'll notice
Why can't you notice?
I've always been yours
I'm the girl next door
The girl next door
You know when my parents are fighting
You know when I'm mad I can't hide it
I throw riots
I know when you're mad you get quiet
I can tell when you're lying
'Cause you're smiling at me
I know that your eyes are evergreen
I know that they change with the seasons
Not every girl gets to see them
But I've seen them for half of my life
Why would you want to find somebody new?
When I've grown up getting to know ya
(Okay)
I know when your birthday is, what your sister thinks
About every other girl you bring home
You got your mama's laugh and your looks from your dad
Your house it feels like home
Every time I try to fall for somebody else
I end up looking just over the fence
Hoping you'll notice
Maybe you'll notice
I've always been yours
I'm the girl next door
I know that your heart's had a hard go
We don't have to talk about her though
Your brother filled me in on everything
But I don't think he knows everything
Like how I know when your birthday is, what your sister thinks
About every other girl you bring home
You got your mama's laugh and your looks from your dad
Your house it feels like home
Every time I try to fall for somebody else
I end up looking just over the fence
Hoping you'll notice
Maybe you'll notice
I've always been yours
I'm the girl next door
The girl next door
I don't want to force it
Don't want to look desperate
Do you have to catch me in the window changing
For you to notice?
You can leave it or take it
If I was you I'd take it
'Cause I know when your birthday is, what your sister thinks
About every other girl you bring home
You got your mama's laugh and your looks from your dad
And to me you feel like home
Every time I try to fall for somebody else
I end up looking just over the fence
Hoping you'll notice
Why can't you notice?
I've always been yours
I'm the girl next door
The girl next door
You know when my parents are fighting
You know when I'm mad I can't hide it
I throw riots
