A Certain Girl Lyrics

There's a certain girl I've been in love with a long, long time
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....
I can't reveal her name until she's mine
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh...
I've tried to make her time and time again
Still we're introduced as nothing but friends
There's a certain girl I've been in love with a long, long time
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....
There's a certain chick I've been sweet on since I met her
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....
I can't reveal her name until I get her
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....
Someday I'm going to wake up and say
I'll do anything just to be your slave
There's a certain girl I've been in love with a long, long time
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....
There's a certain girl I've been in love with a long, long time
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....
I can't reveal her name until she's mine
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh...
I've tried to make her time and time again
Still we're introduced as nothing but friends
There's a certain girl I've been in love with a long, long time
What's her name?
I can't tell you
Ahh....

This one is not a Warren Zevon creation, this is a cover. Warren was actually covering Clapton, but the song originated much earlier with several different people having been credited as author. Unlike most thing Zevon wrote himself, this one is pretty straight forward.

Isn’t gonna happen, Todd! Sorry :( but you will be OK. I think you will find if you turn back around and unburn your bridges that is where your light will shine. You have a beautiful family that you left behind. My family and I pray for you every day.

I love the line "Someday I'm going to wake up and say/I'll do anything just to be your slave" What a great bluesy song about unrequited love and hunger for connection in an isolating age Great lyrics. Great music. But of course it is... it's Warren!
