The Girl That Never Was (Acoustic) - James Blunt

Lyrics by：George Tizzard/James Blunt/Rick Parkhouse

Produced by：Red Triangle

Darling I

Know we talked about

It one too many times

How there was something

Missing in our lives

A little life

So we tried it was more than

Just a twinkle in your eye

But some things you

Just don't get to decide

At least we tried

The first casualty of life

Is the plan

When I look back

I'm not even sure that

We were thinking

'Cause somewhere

She's probably dancing

With her blonde hair

Falling like ribbons

On her shoulders

Just like we always saw

Bright eyes

Spinning in circles in the sunlight

Darling we tried but now it's over

We had it all and then we lost

The girl that never was

If I could say a million words

To take away the pain

What kills me is you trying

To take the blame

You're not to blame

I'll never say I told you so

But sad I've thought the words

Tried drowning you in happiness

I only make it worse

We never should have picked a name

'Cause now she has a face

And now no matter what we do

No one will take her place

So somewhere

She's probably dancing

With her blonde hair

Falling like ribbons

On her shoulders

Just like we always saw

Bright eyes

Spinning in circles in the sunlight

Darling we tried but now it's over

We had it all and then we lost

The girl that never was

I know we'll never know you

I know we'll never hold you

I never got to show you my love

'Cause somewhere

She's probably dancing

With her blonde hair

Falling like ribbons

On your shoulders

Just like we always saw

Bright eyes

Spinning in circles in the sunlight

Darling we tried but now it's over

We had it all and then we lost

The girl that never was
