Lyrics
Im never gonna be your boyfriend &
I don't know if I'd make a good friend,
so maybe I'll just join the fan club,
if you show me where to sign up,
when you shine, it's alright with me..
this world is full of things that don't work,
and if you don't believe me, ask her,
like that gift on Christmas morning,
the one that fell apart by evening,
when you shine, it's so good to see..
but she's so free and I'm so caught in the middle now,
she's so out there, & I'm still stuck here,
but, when she shines, it's alright with me...
this town is full of big-game hunters,
and everybody wants to bag her,
it's clear to me that that's not my call,
don't want nobody's head on my wall,
when you shine, that's enough for me..
but she's so wild and I'm so house-trained,
she's a roaming child, and I'm so left-brained,
but, when she shines, it's alright with me...
so don't let anybody tame you,
classify, deny, or claim you,
you're not anybody's new world,
don't let'em plant a flag on you, girl,
when you shine, it's alright, &
but she's so free and I'm so caught in the middle now,
she's so out there, & I'm still stuck here,
but, when she shines, it's alright, &
she's so loose and I'm so uptight,
she's living proof and a sight for sore eyes,
'cause, when she shines, it's alright,
when she shines, it's alright,
when she shines, it's alright, with me...
