[00:06.54] It's not simple to say
[00:09.38]
[00:10.85] Most days I don't recognize me
[00:16.21] These shoes and this apron
[00:18.77]
[00:19.52] This place and it's patrons
[00:21.52]
[00:22.26] Have taken more than I gave them
[00:26.16]
[00:28.57] It's not easy to know
[00:32.03]
[00:32.62] I'm not anything that I used to be
[00:37.59] Although it's true
[00:39.33]
[00:39.86] I was never attention sweet center
[00:43.95]
[00:44.65] I still remember that girl
[00:48.35]
[00:49.12] She's imperfect but she tries
[00:54.11]
[00:54.68] She is good but she lies
[00:59.62]
[01:00.22] She is hard on herself
[01:04.82]
[01:05.80] She is broken but won't ask for help
[01:10.32]
[01:11.54] She is messy but she's kind
[01:16.81] She is lonely most of the time
[01:22.71] She is all of this mixed up
[01:26.04] And baked in a beautiful pie
[01:29.46]
[01:31.24] She is gone but she used to be mine
[01:37.35]
[01:40.66] And it's not what I asked for
[01:43.89]
[01:44.47] Sometimes life just slips in through back door
[01:50.88] Carves out the person
[01:53.09]
[01:53.67] And makes you believe it's so true
[01:57.20]
[01:59.00] And now I've got you
[02:01.30]
[02:02.85] And you're not what I asked for
[02:06.04]
[02:06.70] If I'm honest I know I would give it all back
[02:12.57] For a chance to start over
[02:15.76] And rewrite an ending or two
[02:19.51]
[02:21.31] For the girl that I knew
[02:23.65] Who be reckless just enough
[02:28.20]
[02:28.95] Who get hurt but
[02:32.12] Who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised
[02:36.49]
[02:37.37] And gets used by a man who can't love
[02:42.91]
[02:43.49] And then she'll get stuck and be scared
[02:48.80] Of the life that's inside her
[02:51.21]
[02:51.83] Growing stronger each day
[02:53.85]
[02:54.41] 'Til it finally reminds her
[02:57.18] To fight just a little
[03:00.08] To bring back the fire in her eyes
[03:04.37]
[03:05.11] That's been gone but it used to be mine
[03:16.11]
[03:18.28] Used to be mine
[03:26.60]
[03:30.30] She is messy but she's kind
[03:34.39]
[03:35.25] She is lonely most of time
[03:41.19] She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
[03:48.26]
[03:49.83] She is gone but she used to be mine
