Mistaken Identity The girl in the chair with the long golden hair Well that used to be me A flirtatious smile unpredictably wild Always trying to please I was always walking one step ahead Or so I thought until the monster crawled into my bed Rewind and erase that shock look on your face 'cause your mona lisa is dead A million words a thousand days The girl I used to be has a terrible case of mistaken identity And yesterday's girl is not what you see It's a terrible case of mistaken identity
The sun likes to rise and the moon likes to fall And that's kinda like my life I've played the role of the nice girl next door Who gets cut like a knife Now I'm not looking for apologie eyes And I don't want to spend a night on a bed of beautiful lies Erase and rewind leave that sick girl behind and fast forward, fast forward A thousand days The girl I used to be has a terrible case of mistaken identity And yesterday's girl is not what you see it's a terrible case of mistaken identity That's not me, it's just not me That's not me The girl I used to be has a terrible case of mistaken identity And yesterday's girl is not what you see it's a terrible case of mistaken identity The girl I used to be has a terrible case of mistaken identity And yesterday's girl is not what you see it's a terrible case of mistaken identity by Delta Goodrem
