The Little Girl I Once Knew (45 version) Lyrics

we met when she was younger
when i had no eyes for her
a few years went by and i saw her
now im gonna try for her
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)

how could i ever have known that
shed be what she is today
look at how her boyfreind holds her
ill be moving in one day
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)

[instrumental]
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)

shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
shes not the little girl (i once knew)
