You're not the girl you think you are, no no
They're not his shoes under your bed, yeah yeah
He'll take you places in his car
That you won't forget, no

All the people that you know, yeah
Will turn their heads as you go by
But you'll be hard to recognise
With the top down and the wind blowing, blowing

He won't deceive you but tell you the truth
Woman, he'll be no trouble

He won't write you letters full of excuses
C'mon, I believe you have one in a million

You're not the girl you think you are, yeah
There's someone standing in your place
The bathroom mirror makes you look tall,
But it's all in your head, in your head

He won't deceive you he'll tell you the truth
Woman, he'll be no trouble

He won't write you letters full of excuses
C'mon, I believe you have one in a million

He won't deceive you but tell you the truth
C'mon, I believe you have one
You're not the girl you think you are
C'mon I believe you have one
You're not the girl you think you are
C'mon I believe you have one
You're not the girl you think you are
