      Because what he is bascially saying is he started writing the songs talking about all the girls he was now meeting and he happened to be dating Elle at the time, but that song wasn't about her, once he started dating Christy, he probably fell in love with her and decided to write the song about her and change it from Uptown GirlS, to Uptown Girl.
