When I Was Your Girl

When I was your girl I didn't know that I would End where you begin More beautiful in your skin No matter of regret This loosening curl Teasing you out When I was your girl In my room you said we'll stay here for an endless year Close the door we're letting no one near When I was your girl When I was your girl And then today All the nightmares came my way All the tears I tried to stay You were never satisfied When I was your girl When I was your girl And when I was she I'd put on every coat To wear the weather down But even in the sun You said you tasted rain I watched you unfurl You held on to me When I was your girl In my cups I see you watching from the edge of the bed I'm sinking words that you never said When I was your girl When I was your girl And then today I'll be keeping out your way Every debt they owe I pay They were never satisfied When I was your girl When I was your girl We tore out a page Impolitely quit the stage Into corners sweep our rage I would never leave you crying When I was your girl When I was your girl When I was your girl
