Not The Girl Lyrics

Chorus:
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 that's left a
shelf
I hear the footsteps down the hall and I know someday
that will be you
Leaving me for good

Verse 1:
I've been sitting here for two straight hours watching
you asleep
Wishing I could talk to you
There is no denying we both have emotions running deep
Oh! If I could talk to you
Cos I'm scared, cos when I try to take your hand you
are not there
And even though I see the signs you think I'm just
scared
Gimme one reason why I should hide my fears
When it's killing me inside

Chorus:
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 that's left a
shelf
I hear the footsteps down the hall and I know someday
that will be you
Leaving me for good

Verse 2:
We have been together for so long, you seem a part of
me
Just how did this all go wrong?
And you say you gave to me your best just to make it work
But just how did this all go wrong?
Cos I tried, see my eyes are empty from all the tears I
cried
Since this "perfect" love is hardly satisfied
Gimme one reason why I should hide my tears
When it's killing me inside

Chorus:
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 that's left a
shelf
I hear the footsteps down the hall and I know someday
that will be you
Leaving me for good

Bridge:
And if I ever come across a girl like you again
I don't know if i will let my emotion show
I'll just look the other way; I don't care what you
might say
Cos I'm not so sure how much of this my poor heart can
take

Chorus:
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 that's left a
shelf
I hear the footsteps down the hall and I know someday
that will be you
Leaving me for good

Repeat Chorus till fine...
