The Girl I Used To Be (我曾经是这样的女孩) - Imelda May[00:00:00]
Written by:Imelda May/Paul Moak[00:00:00]
Once upon a time[00:00:10]
A Dublin girl ran free[00:00:15]
Down the cobblestones[00:00:20]
Round pubs and homes[00:00:23]
As rich as she could be[00:00:26]
Swimming in the Irish sea[00:00:31]
Climbing up bray head[00:00:37]
Her lips were warmed[00:00:42]
With pots of tea[00:00:45]
Chips and buttered bread[00:00:48]
Fed love from mam and da[00:00:53]
They raised her up[00:00:58]
They made her fly[00:01:01]
They gave her roots and wings[00:01:04]
As time moves on and years go by[00:01:09]
She'll miss those simple things[00:01:14]
She's the girl I used to be[00:01:19]
The playgrounds all came down[00:01:27]
And we mourned our factories[00:01:32]
Times were tough but I had enough[00:01:38]
I had my family[00:01:43]
Life kicked in with all its might[00:01:48]
But my strong heart wouldn't break[00:01:54]
I got kicked around and broken down[00:01:59]
I took all that I could take[00:02:04]
But you raise me up[00:02:10]
You made me fly[00:02:13]
You gave me roots and wings[00:02:16]
As time moves on and years go by[00:02:21]
I miss those simple things[00:02:26]
And the girl I used to be[00:02:31]
Now I'm grown with a child of my own[00:03:03]
And I hope to god on high[00:03:08]
That these are the days she thinks upon[00:03:14]
As the best days of her life[00:03:19]
And I'll raise her up[00:03:25]
I'll make her fly[00:03:27]
I'll give her roots and wings[00:03:30]
As time moves on and years go by[00:03:35]
She'll miss those simple things[00:03:41]
And the girl she used to be[00:03:46]
She's the girl I used to be[00:03:51]
