She Used To Be Mine

It's not simple to say

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