Words for Girlfriends - Simply Red

Do I feel jealousy when you’re free without me?

Maybe

Do I feel that my love will stay with you forever?

Hopefully

In memoriam of my lovers will you sleep with me forever?

Oh most certainly I never did doubt you

You surround yourself with trinkets like they’re meaningful possessions

Baby

Like some squirrel in the garden with expensive permutations

Save me

They’ll outlive you in the end will be your final realisation

Oh most certainly I never did doubt you

Words for girlfriends parading as songs

To be living with songs, yet without you

Words for girlfriends parading as songs

'Though I never ever really did doubt you, no…

As we search our lives forever for perfection in relations

Ladies

I can dream of love and scheme of love with all its complications

Shakily

Ideals are fine for beauty but for love they fool relations

Oh most certainly I never did doubt you

Words for girlfriends parading as songs

To be living with you, yet without you

Words for girlfriends parading as songs

'Though I never ever really did doubt you

No I never ever really did doubt you

As we search our lives forever for perfection in relations

Ladies

I can dream of love and scheme of love with all its complications…

They’re just words, only words
