I'm not that girl,
the one your parents warned you about,
the one that lets secret promises slip between my lips as I make you sigh in ecstasy
only to have you realize every word said while I was between your thighs was a lie, intended only to provoke reaction at the moment.

I'm not that girl,
the one your friends warned you about,
the one that lets a secret wink fly at them as I hold your hand tight,
determined to keep you close
until the moment you aren't enough,
not that you ever know you aren't my one and only.

I'm that girl,
the one you don't think exists,
the one that wants to wake up extra early
for the sole purpose of rolling over
to settle a gentle kiss upon your lips,
then stretch and rise to prepare
a breakfast for you.

I'm that girl,
the one that wants to you surprise desserts just because,
so I'm not the only sweet thing you have
to come home to.

I'm not the girl that will break your heart, lie to you, or cheat on you.
I'm the girl that will stand by you, no matter what, because I want to be the one you lean on in times of need.
I don't want to cause you pain, I want to help fix your struggles.

I'm not that girl, the one all the guys lust after.
I want to be the girl you fall in love with.
