When you were my girl, there were times you'd look at me And I knew exactly how it felt to be loved you were my girl, I don't know if I told you But whenever I'd hold it scared me so much
You were all that I needed, you were all that I had one I could turn to, when the world had gone mad And I guess I just wanted, for you to know that
(Chorus) Not a day by I don;t think of you (Do you...ever...think of me when you're alone) Or I don't ask myself why (Do you...ever...wonder how things could gone) If everything's so perfect now (Do you...ever...think of me and start to cry) Why do I cry all the time I didn't cry When you were my girl When you were my girl
When I was your man, if I you for granted Please understand it was my foolish heart Girl you were best friend, baby your love completed me I loved you completely, just as you are
And if you couldn't feel that, then how I regret That I never told you, all the things I should've said But I that's one chance that I'll never get
(Chorus)
And now I'm walking this world without you with every step I take I find out every day How much further my heart can break - oh yeah
I understand why We let something so beautiful Just fade and die We should have tried One more time When you were my girl
