Her face, when you were looking for a while
With not a trace that we're underneath the weather
And I tried to let go
And she slipped away
Like a little girl
But I really wanna make her mine

My girl would never say
What I need to hear
To make it all okay
So we try to make nice so the kids won't know
For a little while, but it really doesn't make it out

Find you alone a while
With a heavy hand and a dark-lit smile
Let her find time to regret
What I still don't know
And I really want to make her mine

She wants to know just who I am
She wants to know just who I am
She can make you work for the worth she has
She wants to know just who I am

I'm guessing that it happens all of the time
Through no fault of mine
She can turn it around
And she wasn't like the best thing under the sun
But yeah, I guess I needed to learn from her
I guess I needed to open up and let it all out

Your face when it all came down
With a bright light was a little dark frown
I was unturned by the sharp alarm
And you weren't afraid
But it really doesn't matter

I tried you and forced a smile
And we were like friends for an unset while
And I might've let go maybe one of those nights you stayed a while
And still I wanna make her mine

She wants to know just who I am
She wants to know just who I am
She can make you work for the worth that she has
She wants to know just who I am

I'm guessing that it happens all of the time
Through no fault of mine
She can turn it around
And she wasn't like the best thing under the sun
But yeah, I guess I needed to learn from her
I guess I needed to open up and let it all out

She wasn't like the best thing under the sun
But, yeah, I guess I needed to learn from her
I guess I needed to open up and let it all out
