Lyrics
An open window pane, a gentle breeze disturbs the hair that falls across her face
I know another day won?t mend the broken promises this sleeping angel makes.
You can deny it, but you can?t fight it
When people ask what changed in you I?ll say
She used to be fun, she's all that I had
Now she holds all of her world in a plastic bag
It?s sad, but its perfectly clear
She used to be my girl, but my girl disappeared
I wrote her a letter yesterday, worked up the courage to walk down see her face to face
I looked in the window and turned away, reminded of the reasons why I just couldn?t stay
You can deny it, but you can?t fight it
When people ask what changed in you I?ll say
She used to be fun, she's all that I had
Now she holds all of her world in a plastic bag
It?s sad, but its perfectly clear
She used to be my girl, but my girl disappeared
There?s a question that?s been plaguing me ? what would I want someone else to do if my reflection wasn?t saving me?
But I tried so hard to save you
I tried so hard to save you
I tried so hard
She used to be fun, a little bit mad
Now she holds all of her world in a plastic bag
It?s sad, but its perfectly clear
She used to be my girl, but my girl disappeared
She used to be my girl, but my girl disappeared
