I knew a girl like you
She was something else and she was broken
She didn't make it through
And now there's nothing I can do
But think of her each time I see you
She had the same dark eyes
When you look at me and smile, I see her
And it tears me up inside
And still there's nothing I can do
But think of her when I'm with you
And though I know that girl's long gone
I sit and watch as you
Do your impressions of that girl
A girl I used to know
A girl a lot like you
Of all the girls I knew
From the moment that we met, she had me
How could I refuse?
And there was nothing I could do
With her, I had no defenses
She had the same dark eyes
When you look at me and smile, I see her
And it tears me up inside
And still there's nothing I can do
But think of her when I'm with you
And though I know that girl's long gone
I sit and watch as you
Do your impressions of that girl
A girl I used to know
A girl a lot like you
A girl I used to know
A girl a lot like you
