Lyrics

Hey girl, look what you do to me

are you for real - like you used-- to be

I know, your time will come for you

You'll--- see, all your dreams come true


But not for me - not with me


You're a 10, and I'm a 2

I enjoyed, - the time I spent with you

and I employ, every move I have

hey girl, there aint noth----ing new


Not for me - and not with you


Bridge

Dreams can expire, so can desire


I'll see you, one more time or 2


But not with me, I'm not for you

Not with me - I know it's true


Nothing Can Stop You Now
