Lyrics of The Girl I Used To Be by Rita Ora, Brandy

[QUEEN OF HEARTS]
Remember how it used to be in high school?

[CINDERELLA]
Oh no, we were so carefree

[QUEEN OF HEARTS, CINDERELLA]
Yeah, we would play by our own rules, mm

[CINDERELLA, QUEEN OF HEARTS, BOTH]
Didn’t have a road map
Just a recipe book and a dust broom (What a mess)

But we had hope and we had each other
And that was enough, mm

[CINDERELLA]
I wish I didn’t hide behind the curtain (Don’t wanna hide anymore)

[QUEEN OF HEARTS, QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
I try to keep things sunny, so I smile ’til my cheeks start hurting, mm

[QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
It’s all curtsy, put it on, smile, wave
Lucky girl, be happy, behave

[QUEEN OF HEARTS]
The dark, it tries to consume me

[CINDERELLA]
And these days my daughter sees right through me

[QUEEN OF HEARTS]
So how can I reach her when she feels so far away?

[CINDERELLA]
Well, if she’s anything like you, I know she would say, oh yeah

[QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
When it gets dark, find the light in you
And when the door slams, gotta push right through
When times get tough, she’ll know what to do
We always find a way
Can’t turn time, but we sure can dream
And maybe we can live in this place between

[CINDERELLA]
The woman that you see

[QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
And the girl I used to be

[CINDERELLA]
The girl who always had a plan

[QUEEN OF HEARTS, QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
The girl who always held my hand through all of my phases

[QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
So slick how quick the wind changes
And now it’s our turn to break out, be brave
With new dreams, the two dreams we made

[CINDERELLA]
I wish our daughters were near us

[QUEEN OF HEARTS, CINDERELLA & BOTH]
My daughter
My daughter, if you can hear us

[QUEEN OF HEARTS]
I hope you know I’m proud of the girl you are

[CINDERELLA]
And I hope you know I’m near even when I’m far

[QUEEN OF HEARTS, QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA]
And if you get lost, look inside your heart

[QUEEN OF HEARTS & CINDERELLA, QUEEN OF HEARTS]
You’ll always find a way
Maybe it’s time that we split the screen
And maybe it’s time that we let them see
A different side of me (A different side of)
The girl I used to be
