[Verse 1]
|
Lonely days and lonely nights are waiting for me
|
But I gotta leave
|
From the day rise up until the night falls down
|
I'm losin myself, so I can't stay around
|
|
[Hook]
|
I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect
|
But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore
|
So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love
|
You tried to mold me
|
And I thought that I would please you more
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You want me to be what you want me to be
|
But you can't
|
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
|
I tried my best to be your everything
|
But you can't
|
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
|
|
Oh Ohhh
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
I close my eyes and memorize the girl that I was
|
Before there was us
|
Hard to remember, it's been so long since she's been around
|
I gave up myself, and still
|
I let you down
|
|
[Hook]
|
I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect
|
But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore
|
So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love
|
You tried to mold me
|
And I thought that I would please you more
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You want me to be what you want me to be
|
But you can't
|
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
|
I tried my best to be your everything
|
But you can't
|
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
|
|
Oh Ohh
|
|
[Bridge]
|
I must have fought for your heart
|
If it was mine from the start
|
Your love's conditional
|
Mine I let you have for free
|
You had a price to your love, and gladly I gave it up
|
And now there's nothing left
|
Because I let you change all of me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You want me to be what you want me to be
|
But you can't
|
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
|
I tried my best to be your everything
|
But you can't
|
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
|
|
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
|
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
|
