You came to see me in my dress
Like any good man would
For once I rushed to see you
But you came early
I wasn't ready
I put it on just for you
Your eyes lit up
And I could see I was just the girl you wanted me to be
Taking the football from your hands I threw it like you taught me
And I could see I was just the girl you wanted me to be
But the one time I wanted you to stay
To wait
To meet him...
You left early
And I pretended it was okay
Just as it was okay every other time
I continued to smile
And the next man I rushed to loved me so much more
I was exactly the girl he wanted to see
And when I rushed to him
It was with so much more excitement then when I rushed to you
For this man wouldn't leave me
And his eyes were so much brighter.
I was exactly the girl he wanted to see
So up until now
I pretended it was okay
But now I have to remember
It's not my fault
But yours
At least I know
I'm exactly the girl you wanted me to be
And I must remind you
You are the one who took away my dancing feet
And he is the one here to bring them back
I'm exactly the girl you wanted me to be
But I'm exactly the girl he wants to see
