Amerie - Paint Me Over lyrics

[Verse 1] Lonely days and lonely nights are waiting for me But I gotta leave From the day rise up until the night falls down I'm losin myself, so I can't stay around [Hook] I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love You tried to mold me And I thought that I would please you more [Chorus] You want me to be what you want me to be But you can't Paint me over, you tried to paint me over I tried my best to be your everything But you can't Paint me over, you tried to paint me over Oh Ohhh [Verse 2] I close my eyes and memorize the girl that I was Before there was us Hard to remember, it's been so long since she's been around I gave up myself, and still I let you down [Hook] I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love You tried to mold me And I thought that I would please you more [Chorus] You want me to be what you want me to be But you can't Paint me over, you tried to paint me over I tried my best to be your everything But you can't Paint me over, you tried to paint me over Oh Ohh [Bridge] I must have fought for your heart If it was mine from the start Your love's conditional Mine I let you have for free You had a price to your love, and gladly I gave it up And now there's nothing left Because I let you change all of me [Chorus] You want me to be what you want me to be But you can't Paint me over, you tried to paint me over I tried my best to be your everything But you can't Paint me over, you tried to paint me over Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
