00:12She used to dance in the rain, without a reason, without shame
00:19She used to dream of distant places and fill the world with smiling faces
00:25She believed that love was easy, and that every heart was kind
00:31She never knew how hard it would be, to leave those dreams behind
00:38Somewhere along the road, the colors turned to gray
00:44And every little piece of innocence, slowly slipped away
00:50To the girl I used to be, I'm sorry that you had to leave
00:56I'm sorry for the night you cried, but nobody was by your side
01:02I wish I could go back in time, and tell you everything's alright
01:08Even though you change so much, your heart is still alive in me
01:15I see her in the mirror sometimes, behind the sadness in my eyes
01:22She's still the girl who loved the sunrise, and believed in butterflies
01:28She still has dreams worth chasing, she still has songs to sing
01:35And even after all the heartache, she still deserves everything
01:41I've been running from the past, for far too many years
01:47But now I'm learning to embrace, the girl behind the tears
01:53To the girl I used to be, I'm sorry that you had to leave
01:59I'm sorry for the night you cried, but nobody was by your side
02:05I wish I could go back in time, and tell you everything's alright
02:12But even though you change so much, your heart is still alive in me
02:18You were never weak for crying, you were never wrong to care
02:21You were never less deserving of the love you couldn't share
02:24And if I could hold you one more time, I'd tell you not to run
02:28The life you've always dreamed about is only just me to go
02:33Tell the girl I used to be, I finally know you're still to me
02:38The dreams you have, the love you gave, are things that no one ever takes away
02:43And all the years have changed my state, I found out where you've never played
02:49And you were always part of me
02:53To the girl I used to be, I'm finally setting you free
