You're Not My Girl
Hidden Desires Unveiled: You're Not My Girl by Ryan Leslie Explained
Lyrics
I hear them talking cause they seen us around
I hear people gossiping because they've seen us together
Got them guessing about what's really going down
Others are speculating about what's truly happening
And if they find out that we do what we do
If they discover our actions
Girl I doubt if they'd believe it was true
It's doubtful they'd believe it's genuine
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Suggesting we should just be platonic friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
Continuing our current path will only cause harm
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Proposing to maintain a friendship to avoid exposing our secret
Go through the motions, so we don't blow the cover
Going through the motions to prevent blowing our cover
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
Inviting the person to call or visit
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
Suggesting spending nights together
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
If mistreated by someone else, offering solace
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl
Emphasizing that the person is not his significant other
Indiscretion makes this love affair sweet
Highlighting that secrecy enhances the allure of their relationship
Without theses secrets it would feel so incomplete
Without hidden aspects, the connection would feel incomplete
So we should keep our quiet nights between us
Advocating for keeping their private moments confidential
So we'll retain our urgency when we touch
Preserving the intensity of their physical connection by keeping it secret
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Reiterating the idea of maintaining a platonic friendship
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
Warning that continuing as they are will lead to mutual harm
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Suggesting the importance of pretending to avoid exposure
Go through the motions, so we don't blow the cover
Emphasizing the need to go through the motions to keep the secret
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
Encouraging communication and visits
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
Suggesting spending nights together when alone
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Offering comfort if the person is mistreated
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl
Reminding that the person is not his girlfriend
Now you can rock to the rhythm of the beat now don't stop
Encouraging dancing to the beat and maintaining respective roles
And as long as you do yours I'll do my job
As long as each fulfills their role, the arrangement works
Cause I really like this good thing that we've got
Expressing appreciation for the positive aspects of their relationship
So we'll just keep it a secret baby, you're not my girl
Deciding to keep their connection a secret
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Repeating the suggestion of maintaining a platonic friendship
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
Reiterating the potential harm if they continue as they are
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Emphasizing the need to keep their secret
Let's just keep it a secret baby, you're not my girl
Stressing the importance of secrecy, emphasizing not being his girl
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
Encouraging communication and visits (repeated)
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
Suggesting spending nights together (repeated)
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Offering comfort if mistreated (repeated)
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl
Reiterating that the person is not his girlfriend
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
Encouraging communication and visits (repeated)
All your nights alone, you could come over my place
Suggesting spending nights together when alone (repeated)
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Offering comfort if mistreated (repeated)
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl
Reiterating that the person is not his girlfriend (repeated)
