I was born in a messed up world
Wide- eyed, little lonely girl
In love- it was plain to see

Nobody held onto me
I moved around until I messed up good
Lost myself like they said I would

Ain't like I want it to be
But nobody held onto me


I spent everyday runnin' away
But all that did was


Real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up
When I'm not quite good enough

Big deal, your heart, no doors
Or reason to run out
I gotta find someone like me

And I really don't want him to leave

Well I cursed this damn old world

It ain't easy as boy meets girl
'Cause I watched him walk away
It doesn't mean it wasn't meant to be


I spent every day prayin' he would stay
'Cause where all I needed was


The real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up

When I'm not quite good enough
Big deal, your heart, no doors
Or reason to run out

I gotta find someone like me
And I really don't want him to leave


One time
He tried
I loved him

So I can't say he lied
But he let go


One time
He tried
I loved him

So I can't say he lied
But he let go


Real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up
When I'm not quite good enough

Big deal, your heart, no doors
Or reason to run out
I gotta find someone like me

And I really don't want him to leave
