"As My Girl" lyrics

Hey baby, it's been a while
Baby, baby, been a mighty long time
I watched you, even though you would not see, baby
(Check it)
Glad to see that you're still so fine
I remember you back when
Girl, you blew my mind
And I saw you, even though you would not see me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, baby, baby

Be as you are
Girl, it's okay with me (It's alright, it's alright)
You're such a star
Maybe one day you'll see (Maybe one day)
That whatever you are
I'm just hoping you'll be, as my girl (My girl)

Oh, I need to be back
Back by your side
Sugar, back way back when
Kissing was a crime
And I miss you, and I know you miss me
Baby, oh
Baby, baby, baby

Be as you are
Girl, it's okay with me (Oh, it's okey-doke-doke, baby)
You're such a star
Maybe one day you'll see (Maybe one day you'll see, baby)
That whatever you are
I'm just hoping you'll be, as my girl, girl, girl

Listen, listen
Baby girl, showing off causing me laughter
You're my world (My world)
Paradise from disaster
As precious as a pearl
How's about you and me ever after as my girl?

Be as you are
Girl, it's okay with me (Oh, it's okey-doke-doke, baby)
You're such a star
Maybe one day you'll see (Maybe one day)
That whatever you are
I'm just hoping you'll be, as my girl
