They say you're nothing but a party girl
Just like a million more all over the world
I know I shouldn't be raising my hopes up high but I've
Seen the hungry look in their eyes
They'd settle for anything in disguise of love
Seen the party girls look me over
Seen em leaving when the party's over
They can't touch me now
You say you don't mind
We're so hard to find
I could give you anything but time
Give it just one more try
Give it a chance
Starts like fascination
Ends up like a trance
Oh you'll never be the guilty party girl
Maybe someday we can go hiding from this world
Maybe I'll never get over the change in style but I
Don't want to lock you up and say you're mine
Don't want to lose you or say goodbye
I'm the guilty party and I want my slice
But I know you've got me and I'm in your grip like vise
They can't touch me now
You say you don't mind
We're so hard to find
I could give you anything
I would give you anything
I can give you anything but
Time (Give you anything but)
