To M.g. (wherever She May Be) Lyrics - John Mellencamp

La la la 

I was watchin' a movie the other night on TV 

The actress reminded me of you 

Her attitude, the way that she smiled 

She was doin' a part, girl, like you used to do 

I do believe you played it better 

If it wasn't better, it was just as strong 

I would've called you up on the telephone at night 

But somehow, girl, it's been all wrong 

Heard you married a stranger 

In a horse and carriage that was covered with gold 

Well, you wanted to be different and still fit in 

Wonder if you feel different at all, now that you're older

Listen To Taylor Swift's New Song 'Call It What You Want' 

Hope you didn't lose that innocent laughter 

Oh God, hope time didn't take that away 

All those junior high nights underneath the front porch light 

A good Catholic girl durin' the day 

Oh, just watchin' the time grow 

Old enough to know that these memories can't hurt a thing 

Oh, just watchin' the time grow 

If I saw you today, girl, I wouldn't even know ya 

Well, I know it wasn't that big of a love affair 

But, boy, sure seemed like one back then 

When I parlay the memories into their proper places 

I can see now we were no more than friends 

Ooh, your kisses sure tasted sweet 

But I guess any kiss tastes sweet at fifteen 

I just hope your touch is as warm to your ol' man 

As it seemed like it was to me

Oh, just watchin' the time grow 

Old enough to know that these memories can't hurt a thing 

Oh, just watchin' the time grow 

If I saw you today, girl, if I could be with you today 

I wouldn't even know ya
