It's not simple to say<br /> That most days, I don't recognize me<br /> That these shoes, and this apron<br /> That place, and its patrons<br /> Have taken more than I gave themIt's not easy to know<br /> I'm not anything like I used to be, although it's true<br /> I was never attention's sweet center<br /> I still remember that girl<br /> She's imperfect, but she tries<br /> She is good, but she lies<br /> She is hard on herself<br /> She is broken and won't ask for help<br /> She is messy, but she's kind<br /> She is lonely most of the time<br /> She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie<br /> She is gone, but she used to be mineAnd it's not what I asked for<br /> Sometimes life just slips in through a back door<br /> And carves out a person<br /> And makes you believe it's all true<br /> And now I've got youYou're not what I asked for<br /> If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back<br /> For a chance to start over<br /> And rewrite an ending or two<br /> For that girl that I knew<br /> Who was reckless just enough<br /> Who gets hurt<br /> But who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised<br /> And gets used by a man who can't love<br /> And then she'll get stuck<br /> And be scared of the life that's inside her<br /> Growing stronger each day<br /> 'Til it finally reminds her<br /> To fight just a little<br /> To bring back the fire in her eyes<br /> That's been gone, but used to be mine<br /> Oh, used to be mineShe is messy, but she's kind<br /> She is lonely most of the time<br /> She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie<br /> She is gone, but she used to be mineLyrics provided by TANCODEhttps://damnlyrics.com/" readonly=""/>
