Who I Used to Be

(Clint Black/Hayden Nicholas)

The memories and emotions that I've been through

Are things I can't unlearn

But I won't go on standing on the bridges

You've tried so hard to burn

I can't put those fires out and let somebody in

If everything my life's about is who we might've been

Till we forget the love we lost we won't remember

How to love again

That's who I use to be holding onto nothing

Giving everything I use to be to belong to someone

That I know is who I use to see when I looked at you

You were never I use to be and I'm not who I use to be

Coming to my senses now I'm feeling things

I thought I couldn't'dt feel

I don't take for granted if it feels like love

It must not be real

I still find myself out on some bridges now and then

I'm stuck out in the middle trying to reach the other end

But I'm through holding back the flames

To show somebody how to love again

That's who I use to be holding onto nothing

Giving everything I use to be to belong to someone

That I know is who I use to see when I looked at you

You were never I use to be and I'm not who I use to be
