A Girl I Used To Know

I remember clearly that the girl I used to know was only half as wise.
Through it hurts to hear me say the
girl I used to know was only half as wise,
but twice as nice.
Through I know it's wrong to dwell upon the what we were,
and the what we used to be.
I remember feeling like 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.
I remember feeling like 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.

And although
I know it's wrong to dwell upon the what we are and used to be.
I remember feeling like 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.
