Not The Girl Lyrics

You're not the girl I used to know

you're a shadow of yourself

I think i lost you long ago

Like a book thats left the shelf

I hear the footsteps down the hall

And i know someday that will be you

Leaving me, for good

I've been sitting here for two straights hours

Watching you asleep

Wishing i could talk to you

There is no denying we both have

Emotions running deep

Owe if i could talk to you

Cos im scared

Cos when i try to take your hand

You're not there

Even though i see the signs you

Think im just scared

Gimme one reason why i should hide my fears

When its killing me inside

You're not the girl i used to know

You're a shadow of yourself

I think i lost you long ago

Like a book thats left the shelf

I hear the footsteps down the hall

And i know someday that will be you

Leaving me, for good

We have been together for so long

You seem a part of me

Just how did this go all wrong

And you say you gave to me your best

Just to make this work

But just how did this all go wrong

Cos i try

See my eyes are empty from all the tears i cried

Since this perfect love is hardly satisfy

Gimme one reason why i should hide my tears

When its killing me inside

Youre not the girl I used to know

Youre a shadow of yourself

I think i lost you long ago

Like a book thats left the shelf

I hear the footsteps down the hall

And i know someday that will be you

Leaving me, for good

And if I ever come across a girl like you again

I dont know if i would let my emotions show

I'l just look the other way

I dont care what you might say

Cos im not so sure how much of this

My poor heart can take

You're not the girl I used to know

You're a shadow of yourself

I think i lost you long ago

Like a book thats left the shelf

I hear the footsteps down the hall

And i know someday that will be you

Leaving me

Youre not the girl I used to know

Youre a shadow of yourself

I think i lost you long ago

Like a book thats left the shelf

I hear the footsteps down the hall

And i know someday that will be you

Leaving me

Youre not the girl I used to know

Youre a shadow of yourself

I think i lost you long ago

Like a book thats left the shelf

I hear the footsteps down the hall

And i know someday that will be

Leaving me, for good
