Girl Lyrics by ​The Time

The Time

1981

[Verse 1]
Girl, I called you up to say
That I'm havin' trouble sleepin' ever since you went away
Girl, I know you need a little time
To get your head together. But baby, I can't stop cryin'
[Chorus]
Girl, why'd you go away?
What can I say to make you stay?
Girl, I was a fool
I don't know what to do
I'm still in love with you
I'm still in love with you, baby
[Verse 2]
Girl, I guess I was a fool
To try to tie you down and make you play by the rules
Girl, I guess I finally realized
That keepin' you close to me, it would keep me alive
[Chorus]
Girl, why'd you go away?
What can I say to make you stay?
Girl, I was a fool
I don't know what to do
I'm still in love with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do
Girl, what can I say baby, to make you stay?
Girl, I don't know what to do. No I don't
I'm still in love, still in love, still in love
Girl, down on my knees. Oh baby, please
Girl, oh baby, please. I'm still in love with you
I'm still in love with you
Called you up to say, Baby, I still love you
I'm still in love, I'm still in love
