Holiday (US/Canadian version)

(album: Perfect Day - 2007)

There should be a holiday for girls like me

It's started kind of hazy
And somehow I gave in to temptation
I thought that you would please me
But all I got was false accusations
But then you tried to break me
And lived up to your bad reputation

There should be a holiday for girls like me
Just to get some time to pack my bags and breathe
And maybe you will get it when you watch me leave
'Cause it's time to say goodbye

You see I made my mind up when I got that bruise
And if you really wanna know the truth
I'm not the kind of girl that settles for excuses
And I know I'll be alright

I might as well just say it
We always were a bad combination
You're old enough to take it
Don't need to hear your sad explanations
Don't tell me we'll make it
We both know that is false information

There should be a holiday for girls like me
Just to get some time to pack my bags and breathe
And maybe you will get it when you watch me leave
'Cause it's time to say goodbye

You see I made my mind up when I got that bruise
And if you really wanna know the truth
I'm not the kind of girl that settles for excuses
And I know I'll be alright

And it's no way you'll turn it around
'Cause I won't let you hold me down
Everybody knows, everybody knows it, honey
Everybody knows, everybody knows...

There should be a holiday for girls like me
Just to get some time to pack my bags and breathe
And maybe you will get it when you watch me leave
'Cause it's time to say goodbye

You see I made my mind up when I got that bruise
And if you really wanna know the truth
I'm not the kind of girl that settles for excuses
And I know I'll be alright

There should be a holiday for girls like me
Just to get some time to pack my bags and breathe
And maybe you will get it when you watch me leave
'Cause it's time to say goodbye

You see I made my mind up when I got that bruise
And if you really wanna know the truth
I'm not the kind of girl that settles for excuses
And I know I'll be alright
