Remember me?
I was THAT girl who fell in love
with you when I was 17
I was THAT girl that disobeyed my family
in order to be with you,
to be near you,
to stay in love with you.
All I ever wanted was to be yours
to be the only one that you adored,
but that fairy tale dream came to an end.
You broke my heart twice
and I don't know why after the first time
I let you back in.
I loved you more than life itself
and I cared about you more that I cared for myself
I worried about you more than my family and friends,
but you still treated me as THAT girl.
Telling me you loved me behind closed doors
because the truth is always better to hide
telling me how you wanted to be with me
for the rest of your life
and your lies I believed
because I thought you was only there for me,
but when I would leave
is when you did your dirt
and I stayed with you
despite the pain and how it hurt.
I believed you because you said I was one of a kind
and that no matter what your heart would forever be mine,
but not this time.
No longer would I be THAT girl
who was afraid to be alone
I will not be THAT girl
who thought I needed a man
to make me feel whole.
You was the one for me
back when I was a teen,
but my mind and my attention is pointing to someone else.
I was tired of being THAT girl
that always had to stay in the house
I hated being THAT girl who always called,
but you would be out.
THAT girl has decided to pack up and leave.
I will not be THAT girl
the girl you really need.
Now that I'm gone you really want me back
you think I'm still that 17 year old girl
that was hard headed and fell into your traps.
Now that I'm gone you're thinking:
"Damn! How could I let someone go like that?"
Well maybe if you didn't treat me like THAT girl
we would still be together
and if I was treated better than THAT girl
I could be your child's mother,
but you whored me and did me wrong
accused me of going behind your back,
but you ended our love song.
I could of been the one and only for you,
but you labeled me as THAT girl.
Now watch THIS girl turn her back and leave.
