I Used To Love a Girl

I used to love a girl-(by Josner Saintil)
I used to love a girl
Just because she had a nice face.
She had perfect hair,
Nice shape,
And a nice waist.

I used to love a girl
Just because she had everything.
But everything's not everything...
'Cause everything's what joy brings.

True joy is,
Being able to breathe every morning
To go to sleep knowin',
That people may throw rocks at you,
But somehow you're still standing.

It's to know who you are in life
And exactly where you've been...
Because if you don't love yourself,
Then it doesn't matter how life seems,
'Cause you'll die in just a dream.

I used to love a girl..
And love her as I thought.
And started doin' things
That I ought not.
But I did.

I told her that I love her,
So she wouldn't walk away.
Took it slow when she told me,
We went at a fast pace.

I used to love a girl,
Not because of who she was,
But what she was.
Forgive me God,
'Cause I know...
That it was wrong enough.
