She said
Could you really love me
If I became the woman you wish I was?
Would you forget our past
If I became like a woman you know nothing of?

She said
How can I compete
Against someone who pretends to be free?
How can I make you remember
I was once the girl who was different than me?

She said she’d try again
She said she’d try again
But she said she couldn’t be new
New like your new friend

She said
Ask her my love
Is there nothing she wants for herself?
Ask her my love
Is there nothing else except love itself?

She said
Ask her my love
How she thinks it will one day be
Ask her my love
How long will it take for her to be me

She said she’d try again
She said she’d try again
But she said she couldn’t be new
New like your new friend
