The Girl Who Used to Be Me

A bird is born to fly, born for the moment, it takes to the sky

And all its dreams are riding on its wings

But if it falls, the dreams aren't broken

As long as the wind is fair, the sky is always there

Oh, the girl who used to be me, she could fly, she was free

You could read by the light of her smile

Yes, the girl who used to be me used to go dancing

She's been gone such a long, long while

She left without a sound, nobody noticed she wasn't around

And only the moon remembers her at all

The days go by, you start asking questions

And wondering why, why did the dreams all go?

I guess it's time to know

Oh, the girl who used to be me, she could fly, she was free

And she wrote all the words to her song

Yes, this girl who used to be me, used to go dancing

And I feel she's been gone too long

I'd like the chance to be the girl who used to be me, oh

The Girl
