There she goes Little black dress on Standing with the other girls Wearing velvet and pearls looking so fine, so fine All the time that she try to catch my eye Now I hear that she's crushing on another guy Why do we always want what we can't have oh oh oh oh I never really wanted, never really wanted that girl I never really wanted , wanted her in my world I never really wanted that girl over now I do I never noticed how A woman's eyes can dance But from the outside in looks like the dancing for him Leads me wondering, wondering Why isn't now I see her in a different light If I could turn back time I would tonight Why do we always want what we can't have oh oh oh oh I never really wanted, never really wanted that girl I never really wanted , wanted her in my world I never really wanted that girl over now I do oh oh oh You better get that girl while get good There a list of fools who wish they could Why do we always want what we can't have? Oh! I never really wanted, never really wanted that girl I never really wanted, wanted her in my world I never really wanted that girl over now I do, yeah. I never really wanted, never really wanted that girl I never really wanted, wanted her in my world I never really wanted that girl over now I do Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh yeah yeah
