"I Know She's Not A Mannequin" lyrics
"I Know She's Not A Mannequin"
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Her love's so real but friends could only see
From a picture staring out at me
Oh, just a cold face in high society
A face that's real but yet to them a fantasy
They called her a mannequin, oh baby
But if they could feel the warmth of her sweet love
Then they would know that she's real and she's loved
She's not a statute of a mannequin
No, she's not a mannequin
I know, I know, I know she's not a mannequin
Oh, but they don't know how much we love each other so
That's because I'm just a common man, no one must know
So we must meet in the shadows on the street
And 'cause only we are there no one will ever know
She's not a mannequin
Listen here, fellas
In her eyes, I see coldness there
'Cause when she walks by, she doesn't seem to care
That is why they call her a mannequin
But I know, I know she's not a mannequin
Ooh-ooh, she's not a mannequin
One day we'll show the world
One day we'll show the world
The realness of our love they will see
Behind those eyes so cold
You have a precious heart of gold
Not a mannequin, ooh (Mannequin)
Even though it's her disguise, what she failed to realize
Things must be this way
'Cause she has a role to play, each and every day
A mannequin
I know, I know, I know she's not a mannequin
Tell me, baby, you're not a mannequin
I know, I know, I know she's not a mannequin
Doo-doo, doo-doo, mannequin
