Emma Lee Bunton (born 21 January 1976) is an English pop singer, songwriter, and occasional actress, originally from the girl group Spice Girls, where she was known as "Baby Spice". Her debut solo album entitled "A Girl Like Me" spawned the UK number-one hit "What Took You So Long?", as well as the top five hits "What I Am" (a cover of a 1998's song earlier recorded by Edie Brickell & New Bohemians) and "Take My Breath Away" (which was not a cover of Berlin's 1986's hit), and top twenty hit "We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight". The album sold around 125,000 in the UK. In spring of 2003, she returned as Emma (losing the Bunton), with the top five hit "Free Me" and later that year released "Maybe", which also went top ten and outsold the previous single. In spring of 2004, the single "I'll Be There" and the album "Free Me" were released.

A Girl Like Me Lyrics
Emma Bunton
What you get is what you see
Let me tell you basically
This is how its gotta be
Cant - with a girl like me
Cant change my destiny
So if you wanna get next to me
Gotta treat me faithfully
Cant - with a girl like me
Two o clock, Im all alone
Hear you on the telephone
Telling me another line
Said that youd be working late
Asking me if I could wait
Run that by me one more time
Keep me hanging on the line
But youre running out of time
Might have been a fool for love, but Im not blind
If youre looking for a play thing
Every other day thing
I am not the one for you
Im not looking for a part time
Give me half your heart and
Tell me what youre gonna do
Look into my eyes, let me tell you one more time
I need everything, thats how its gonna be
With a girl like me
With a girl like me
Broken rings and promises
Gotta be much more than this
I dont have to compromise
Been around enough to know
When its time to let it go
Do I have to say goodbye
Gonna make it clear to you
Only one thing left to do
Better understand cos every word is true
If youre looking for a play thing
Every other day thing
I am not the one for you (yeah yeah)
Im not looking for a part time
Give me half your heart and
Tell me what youre gonna do
Look into my eyes, let me tell you one more time
I need everything, thats how its gonna be
With a girl like me (oh yeah)
With a girl like me (yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah
What you get is what you see
Let me tell you basically
This is how its gotta be
Cant - with a girl like me (with a girl like me)
Cant change my destiny
So if you wanna get next to me
Gotta treat me faithfully
Cant - with a girl like me
Gonna make it clear to you
Only one thing left to do
Better understand cos every word is true
If youre looking for a play thing
Every other day thing
I am not the one for you (yeah yeah)
Im not looking for a part time
Give me half your heart and
Tell me what youre gonna do
Look into my eyes, let me tell you one more time
I need everything, thats how its gonna be
With a girl like me (that how its gotta be)
With a girl like me (yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Oh-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
