[Verse 1] I wanna be the girl that gets roses Petals on the pillow by surprise I wanna be the girl with the little gold box See my name in the shine of your eyes I wanna be the girl at the table for two Knees touchin' under candlelight I wanna be the girl who makes you laugh too loud Till they almost turn off the lights [Chorus] Why can't I be that girl The one you hurry home to The one you hold all night When the whole world runs you through I just wanna be that girl Who has your fragile heart in her hands Know you love me with all your heart And you're stayin' right here where I am [Verse 2] I wanna be the girl with the diamond necklace But more than that The promise it means I wanna be the girl in your Sunday shirt Lyin' late in faded blue jeans I don't need the cameras I don't need a stage Just your name on my lock screen glow I wanna be the girl you're loyal to Baby Tell me straight I need to know (yeah) [Chorus] Why can't I be that girl The one you hurry home to The one you hold all night When the whole world runs you through I just wanna be that girl Who has your fragile heart in her hands Know you love me with all your heart And you're stayin' right here where I am [Bridge] We don't have to be famous Just us and a quiet room Your tired shoes by my doorway Your jacket on my chair by noon If simple love is all that we get Then that's all I ever wanna choose (oh) [Chorus] Why can't I be that girl The one you hurry home to The one you hold all night When the whole world runs you through I just wanna be that girl Who has your fragile heart in her hands Know you love me with all your heart And you're stayin' right here where I am (that girl) You're stayin' right here where I am
