[00:00:00] The Girl I Used To Be - Imelda May

[00:00:01] Written by：Imelda May/Paul Moak

[00:00:11] Once upon a time

[00:00:16] A Dublin girl ran free

[00:00:21] Down the cobblestones

[00:00:23] Round pubs and homes

[00:00:26] As rich as she could be

[00:00:31] Swimming in the Irish Sea

[00:00:37] Climbing up Bray Head

[00:00:42] Her lips were warmed

[00:00:45] With pots of tea

[00:00:48] Chips and buttered bread

[00:00:53] Fed love from Mam and Da

[00:00:58] They raised her up

[00:01:01] They made her fly

[00:01:04] They gave her roots and wings

[00:01:09] As time moves on and years go by

[00:01:14] She'll miss those simple things

[00:01:19] She's the girl I used to be

[00:01:28] The playgrounds all came down

[00:01:33] And we mourned our factories

[00:01:39] Times were tough but I had enough

[00:01:44] I had my family

[00:01:49] Life kicked in with all its might

[00:01:54] But my strong heart wouldn't break

[00:01:59] I got kicked around and broken down

[00:02:05] I took all that I could take

[00:02:10] But you raise me up

[00:02:13] You made me fly

[00:02:15] You gave me roots and wings

[00:02:21] As time moves on and years go by

[00:02:26] I miss those simple things

[00:02:31] And the girl I used to be

[00:03:03] Now I'm grown with a child of my own

[00:03:08] And I hope to God on high

[00:03:14] That these are the days she thinks upon

[00:03:19] As the best days of her life

[00:03:25] And I'll raise her up

[00:03:27] I'll make her fly

[00:03:30] I'll give her roots and wings

[00:03:36] As time moves on and years go by

[00:03:41] She'll miss those simple things

[00:03:46] And the girl she used to be

[00:03:51] She's the girl I used to be
