To M G (wherever She May Be) Lyrics - Mellencamp John Cougar

I was watching 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 that night 

But somehow, girl, it's been all wrong 

I 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 

I wonder if you feel different at all now that you're older 

Hope you didn't lose that innocent laughter 

Oh, God, I hope time didn't take that away 

All those junior high nights underneat the front porch lights 

A good Catholic girl during the day 

CHORUS 

Oh, oh just watching the time grow 

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

Oh, oh just watching 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, it 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 

CHORUS
