Amerie - Paint Me Over



[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 losing myself
So I can't stay around

[Hook:]
I'm still the girl that you met
You called me perfect
But now you're changing
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

[Repeat Hook:]

[Repeat Chorus:]

[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
[Repeat Chorus:]

Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
