The Mary Onettes - Once I Was Pretty lyrics

Everything I've ever done was a part of The ache in me and the ache in you Everything we ever knew Could break us easily So I pretend that I have what it takes To be a friend to only you But I couldn't bear to become Your choice of younger love Once I was pretty I was pretty to anyone Once you admit it I am pretty to only you I think you owe me some recognition again It doesn't make any sense to me now And looking back is even worse But I suppose it Was a part of my nature Everything I've ever done was a part of Promising you and keeping it true Everything you've ever said Is recorded in my heart You want to know how it feels now I'm just older, and it feels right Once I was pretty I was pretty to anyone Once you admit it I am pretty to only you I think you owe me some recognition again I consequently choose to hide it You know it's only our youth we're chasing Is it only our youth we're chasing? 'Cause we just won't become the ones we were We just won't become the ones we were Once I was pretty I was pretty to anyone Once I was pretty I was pretty to only you Only you Only you Only you Only you Only you I think you owe me I think you owe me some recognition again
