Give me an inch, girl
give me an inch, girl
give me an inch, girl
give me an inch, girl
My eyes show me more than i¡¯ve seen
but unlike my poor heart they¡¯re not cautious
i got to thinking love was a dream
misunderstanding my fortunes
i should have taken more heed of my heart
telling me how to live
But if you give me an inch, girl
i'll give you a mile
oh, i¡¯ll make it all worth while
and i¡¯ll make you see
just how much you mean to me
Well ain¡¯t it easy to go head-over-heels
when you need the right person
you got to learn to smile about it
nothing you do will feel certain
here i stand with my heart in command
and it¡¯s you i want to be with
Give me an inch, girl
i'm in need of you
don't leave me in the cold
when i want to trust in you
don't turn me away
life can be a worry
when it's all work and no play
Give me an inch, girl
i¡¯ll give you a mile
oh, i¡¯ll make it all worth while
and i¡¯ll make you see
just how much
just how much you mean to me
give me an inch,
i'll give you a mile
and i'll make you see
just how much, just how much you mean to me
give me an inch, girl
oh , i'm in need of you
don't leave me in the cold
when i want to trust in you
