Carly Pearce Never Wanted To Be That Girl
[Verse 1: Ashley McBryde]
He helped me change a tire in the Citgo parkin' lot
He said we both could use a beer
And I said,, "Hell, why not?"
What started out as one night turned to six months just like that
He never had a ring on
So I never thought to ask
[Pre-Chorus: Ashley McBryde]
But then last night, I saw a message on his phone
That said, "Hey babe, what time you comin' home?"
[Chorus: Ashley McBryde & Carly Pearce]
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
Bein' "The Other One" when there's another one
God, this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was, but it's gettin' hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl
[Verse 2: Carly Pearce]
I've heard about those women who didn't have a clue
The ones that made excuses like my mama used to do
And he jumps in the shower just as soon as he gets home
And I spend half an hour goin' through his phone
[Chorus: Carly Pearce & Ashley McBryde]
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
Bein' "The Other One" when there's another one
God, this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was, but it's gettin' hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl
[Bridge: Carly Pearce & Ashley McBryde]
Oh, and I feel stupid
But I feel cheap
I feel used
I feel weak
[Chorus: Carly Pearce & Ashley McBryde, Both]
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
Bein' "The Other One" when there's another one
God, this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was, but it's gettin' hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to be that girl
