Girl from London

music & lyrics by Sherman Tabor

I don't know your name yet

Got a little tripped up when I tried to ask it

And I don't know who you came with

But I'm hoping you're alone

You're not from around here

But you're looking like you got it all figured out

You got your best friend winging for you; I'm about it

And I think you already know

And if you want to dance

Darling, you don't have to ask

'Cause I...

Kinda like the way she's talking

Kinda think I want to see where this goes

Dancing with a girl from London

New York kinda felt like home

Don't you think this could be something?

City lights shine in your eyes

Dancing with a girl from London

In New York and I feel alright

Oh, shit, now we're rolling

Got me wondering where you're gon' be waking up in the morning

Got me picking up the tab so you think that I'm ballin'

But you just laugh

And I'm usually not like this

But you're so unlike all these girls

With your class and your ass and that accent

Wait shit, take that back

I don't say shit like that

Please don't be mad

And all of your friends keep on talking me up like

It's middle school and I'm the boy that you like-like

And now we're taking shots in a bar on the west side

Trying all my best lines

But I'm tongue-tied

I don't want to know

If you've got someone back home

'Cause I...

Kinda like the way she's talking

Kinda think I want to see where this goes

Dancing with a girl from London

New York kinda felt like home

Don't you think this could be something?

City lights shine in your eyes

Dancing with a girl from London

In New York and I feel alright
