Coffeesmoke - Time Changed That Girl

I just saw the girl next door for the first time in my life
While we were growing up, I never saw her eyes
She's no longer just the girl I knew before
She's changed her ways, she's something new and something more
Now she's looking through me like she never knew me
I can't believe the way time changed that girl

I remember playing games at school, the picnics in the park
Our names on the apple tree, the fireflies in the dark
She ran beside me when I was a little boy
But now she's playing strings of hearts instead of toys
Like she never knew me
Now she's getting to me
I can't believe the way time changed that girl

Now, if she says hello, I wonder what I'll say
I've never met someone who makes me feel this way
Pictures in the past through a looking glass, gone like yesterday
Nothing is the same
Everything has changed
Since she came home today

Children in a memory and now her time has come
Planning for tomorrow and the life that's just begun
She can now decide the way she wants to be
And how I wish she'll want to spend her life with me
'Stead of looking through me
She'll be getting to me
I can't believe the way time changed that girl
I can't believe the way time changed that girl
