Story behind the song
I was sent an email with this incredible lyric written by another Soundclik.com member, Amelia Rose. As I was reading the lyric, the melody came almost instantly. I am recording my second CD right now and this is just a demo of what we have done with it so far. Thanks for listening!
Lyrics
The Girl I Used To Be ©2002/Amelia Rose/Marla Reid
Tell me what You think of me
When You look inside my heart
Do You see the girl who loved You
Before her life was torn apart
I wish that I could find her
I miss the time she spent with You
I long to be that girl again
Will You show me what to do
Help me find the girl I used to be
Reach within my soul and set her free
I need to understand, I'm trying to believe
Lord, help me find the girl I used to be
I remember when You were my friend
I would pray to You each night
Finding comfort in my thoughts of You
Surrounding me with light
As heartache broke the girl in me
Her trust began to fade
That girl is lost somewhere within
And she needs You here today
I've wandered far away my life’s been filled with pain..
I’ve been crawling on my own, will You show me the way home?
Help me find the girl I used to be
Reach within my soul and set her free
I need to understand, I'm trying to believe
Lord, help me find the girl I used to be
Help me find the girl
Oh I want to find the girl
Help me find the girl I used to be
