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
All the picnics in the park
Our names on the apple tree
And the fireflies in the dark
She ran beside me when I was a little boy
But now she's good at breaking hearts instead of toys

Now she's looking through me like she never knew me
Stirring sweet emotions in my world
Like an old time movie
Now she's getting to me
I can't believe the way time changed that girl

Now if she's 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
Every thing 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

[chorus]
Instead of looking through me like she never knew me
Stirring sweet emotions in my world
Like an old time movie
Now she's getting to me
I can't believe the way time changed that girl

I remember playing games at school
All 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
