David A. Crossman - The Woman that You Knew Lyrics

I read the stories in the magazine
That said that I should follow all my dreams
They made me feel that life was passin' by
And I was givin' up without a try

I lay awake and wonder what I've done
And face the fear of ending up alone

I telephoned your number many nights
But courage fails and I hang up the phone
Now all I want to say is
Won't you take me back?
I've come a long, long way and

Look at me now, I'm not the woman that you knew
Can't you see what life has brought me through?
I've swallowed my pride, the rest is up to you
Take me back, this woman that you knew

Take me back this woman that you knew
Remember, you've made mistakes, too
For every tear you've cried, I've cried a few
Take me back, this woman that you knew

I wanted to believe the things they said
And all the promises that I'd been fed
I found the city lights aren't all they seem
And all I had was someone else's dreams

Now all I want to say is
Won't you take me back?
I've come a long, long way and

Look at me now, I'm not the woman that you knew
Can't you see what life has brought me through?
I've swallowed my pride, the rest is up to you
Take me back, the woman that you knew

Take me back the woman that you knew
Remember, you've made mistakes, too
For every tear you've cried, I've cried a few
Take me back, this woman that you knew
Take me back, this woman that you knew
