to set your heart on fire
dusty days so long ago
dusty days so long ago
that have long since expired
I was not the sweet, sweet dream
I was not the sweet, sweet dream
that painted your skies blue
I'm just a girl who long ago
I'm just a girl who long ago
fell deeply in love with you
I'm not the key that fits the lock
I'm not the key that fits the lock
and opens up a door
I did not have the power to
I did not have the power to
give what was wanted and more
there was just no miracle
there was just no miracle
or wishes upon a star
I'm the one in the rearview mirror,
I'm the one in the rearview mirror,
when you drove off in your car
when you look back and wonder
when you look back and wonder
if you had gone that way
will you see the promise
will you see the promise
of what you held at bay?
I wasn't close to being the dream
I wasn't close to being the dream
you wanted to come true
I'm just a girl who long ago
I'm just a girl who long ago
fell deeply in love with you
