There Was A Girl

(专辑： Legacy - 2021)

Sir, excuse me, do you mind if I sit down here
Please forgive me if I seem a little rude
But I thought you could use a little bit of company
So I sat down and we talked like we known each other for years
We spoke about our hopes, our dreams, our fears
He said, son, let me give you some advice
When you find the one, you hold on to her tight

That's when he smiled and asked me if there was someone special in my life
I told him there was no one
Then I took a moment, then I opened up to him and said

There was a girl
I never should have gave her up
There was a girl
The only one I've ever loved
It's the biggest mistake I've ever made
Now it's killing me that I've gotta say

There was a girl
I've always kept it to myself
There was a girl
And since her, there's been no one else
Now she's out of my life, should have treated her right
It was a long time ago, but once
There was a girl
Oh oh oh

As we sat there
I started pouring out my heart and soul
To this stranger that I didn't even know
I guess I kept it all inside me for so long
'Cause I knew I did her wrong

He said, you know what boy, it's never too late for you to make it right
And you'll never know for sure until you try
'Cause we all make mistakes in life
But don't you give her up without a fight

That's when I smiled and told him
She married and moved on with someone else
And I know she's better off
It'd hard to believe that she was my everything
Now she's just someone I used to know

There was a girl
I never should have gave her up
There was a girl
The only one I've ever loved
It's the biggest mistake I've ever made
Now it's killing me that I've gotta say

There was a girl
I've always kept it to myself
There was a girl
And since her, there's been no one else
Now she's out of my life, should have treated her right
It was a long time ago, but once
There was a girl
Oh there was a girl

Oh oh oh
Now she's out of my life
Should have treated her right
It was a long time ago, but once
There was a girl
