Lyrics

The Girl I Once Knew

I'm looking for the girl I once knew
Who stood there on that February day and said "I Do"
She's so close and yet so far away from me, it's true
I'm looking for the girl I once knew

We were so happy, all we had to do was believe
But holding on to each other was harder than we thought it would be
Something happened, she must have felt it, too
'Cause I'm all alone and hurting...

I got to keep on searching
'Cause she's somewhere in the world
I've got to keep on looking for the girl I once knew

Where the road she takes me, I don't care
Long as I find my baby, find my baby there

I got to keep on looking
I got to keep on searching
'Cause she's somewhere in the world
I've got to keep on looking for the girl I once knew

When we fell in love, time stood still
It was easy like breathin', it was all we could feel
How could this happen, no one could tell
Wonder how she's doin'?

I got to keep on movin'
'Cause she's somewhere in the world
I've got to keep on looking for the girl I once knew

Keep on searching
'Cause she's somewhere in the world
I've got to keep on looking for the girl I once knew

Yeah, keep on movin'
'Cause she's somewhere in the world
I've got to keep on looking for the girl I once knew
