I'm the Girl...

I'm the Girl....

k

I'm the girl across the room,

The one in bows and braids.

I look across

And Smile at you,

But your smile quickly fades.

K

I'm the girl who sits in back of you

To see where your eyes might lead,

Hoping that for one second

They might find me.

k

I'm the girl you didn't ask,

The one you're too good for.

Everytime I open a window,

You always close a door.

k

Times have changed

And time moves on.

k

Now you're the one,

The one who smiles from across the room,

The one who looks for my eyes to find his,

The one I didn't ask.

k

I'm sorry that you took so long,

So long to come around,

'Cause my heart is taken now

While yours is all torn down.

k

Maybe you should've noticed me

Back in our schoolhood days.

Or maybe God was just telling me

That He has better Ways.

k

So here I am,

k

The girl all dressed in white.

I say "I do" to someone else,

Someone else who saw me,

Someone else who smiled back,

Someone else who loves me,

Which is something you always lacked.

k

I'm not sorry

That you were so cruel to me.

God just used it

As a way

To provide what's best for me.
