A Girl I Used To Know

I remember clearly that the girl I used to know

Was only half as wise

Though it hurts to hear me say the girl I used to know

Was only half as wise but twice as nice

Though I know it's wrong to dwell upon the what we are and used to be

I remember feeling that the sky would crack and crumble to the sea

The precious time we had will never be forgotten

But every girl has to grow up to be a woman

It's just that for a second

I recognized a girl I used to know

I remember praying that the madness

In your eyes would surely fade away

I remember saying that the world was

Yours and mine to deal with any way

Any way we wanted we could lock the moon and throw away the key

And I remember feeling that the sky would crack and crumble to the sea

The precious time we had will never be forgotten

But every girl has to grow up to be a woman

It's just that for a second

I recognized a girl I used to know

I know it's wrong to dwell upon the what we are and what we used to be

I remember feeling that the sky would crack and crumble to the sea

The precious time we had will never be forgotten

But every girl has to grow up to be a woman

It's just that for a second

I recognized a girl I used to know
