You're changing right before my eyes
am I to believe that the promises were lies?
No, b/c the old you would have never lied
but now you're just like any other guy
I miss the boy who seemed so strange
no matter what was kewl, I knew you wouldn't change
People liked you just for being you
your love was authentic, your personality was too
Now when I see you, I don't know who I see
Those once compassionate eyes just stare empty at me
They say you're growing up, I guess that it's true
But you should never have changed, I miss the old you
The old you didn't care what clothes were in style
and you would do anything just to get me to smile
Now all you care about is your stupid hair
You act like a jerk, like you don't even care
I guess I just miss who you were back then
It wasn't that long ago, I know you remember when
When you told me you love me,and you know it's real
and you weren't afraid to say exactly what you feel
They say when things change, new things come too
But this isn't right, I need the old you
I know the old you is somewhere inside
I'm asking you to just be you, you dont have to hide
I hid for so long, I played it tough
I missed out on everything, when I could have had your love
But now that I can't, after you walked away
I just wish you were the old you, the old you would have stayed...
