the girl i knew somewhere [alternate version][#][*]
You tell me that you've never been this way before You tell me things I know that I've heard somewhere You're standing in the places and you're staring down through faces That bring to mind traces of a girl, a girl that I knew somewhere  I just can't put my finger on what it is That says to me, watch out, don't believe her I can't give any reasons girl, my thoughts are bound down in a whirl I just can't think who in the world was that girl, I know I met her somewhere  Someway, somehow this same thing was done Someone, somewhere did me this same wrong  Well goodbye dear, I just can't take this chance again My fingers are still burning from the last time And if your love was not a game, I only have myself to blame That's as maybe, I can't explain, just ask the girl that I knew somewhere  And if your love was not a game, I only have myself to blame That's as maybe, I can't explain, just ask the girl that I knew somewhere
