Carly Pearce, Ashley McBryde – Never Wanted To Be That Girl (Lyric Video)

Lyrics

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

But then last night I saw a message on his phone

That said, “Hey, babe, what time you comin’ home?”

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

Thought I knew who I was, but it’s gettin’ hard to tell

I never wanted to be that girl

I 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

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

Oh, and I feel stupid

I feel cheap

I feel used

I feel weak

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
