  • I know a girl with the golden touch
    She's got enough, she's got too much
    But I know, you wouldn't mind
    You could have it all if you wanted
    You could have it all if it mattered so much

    But then all they know is how to put you down
    When you're there, they're your friend
    But then when you're not around
    They say, "Oh, she's changed"
    We know what they mean
    Well they mean, they're just jealous
    Because they never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well

    That kind of girl, yes, she's never alone
    You leave a thousand messages on her phone
    But you know you never get through
    And you could have it all if you wanted, girl
    You could have it all if it matters to you

    But then all they know is how to put you down
    When you're there, they're your friend
    But then when you're not around
    They say, "Oh, she's changed"
    We know what at means
    Well it means, they're just jealous
    But they'll never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well

    I saw my girl with the golden touch
    Give 'em a taste but not too much
    I just can't listen to the words of fools
    But don't give away too much
    Someone will need your golden touch

    Because then all they know is how to put you down
    When you're there, they're your friend
    Oh, then when you're not around
    They say, "Oh, she's changed"
    We know what they mean
    Well it means, they're just jealous
    They'll never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well

    Because then all they know is how to put you down
    When you're there, they're your friend
    Oh, when you're not around
    They say, "Oh, she's changed"
    Oh, I know what that means
    Well it means, they're just jealous
    They'll never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well

    No, they'll never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well
    They'll never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well
    No, they'll never do the things
    That they wish that they could do so well Writer/s: Johnny Borrell
