[Verse 1:]

Hey there, excuse me miss

Sorry that I stopped you on the street like this

But you look like someone that I once knew

Don't you recognize me?

I used to live down at the end of your street

Tell me, how are things girl?

What's been up with you?

 

Pretty lies can't disguise

the pain I see in your eyes

You can't fool this whole world

No matter how hard you try

I can't buy what you're selling me

And there's more to the story you ain't telling me

 

[Chorus]



Hey little sister

Its been a long time and I've missed ya

Tell me what you're doing now out here all alone

Hey babygirl now

Tell me what's wrong with your world now

Did you take a wrong turn?

Can you find your way back home?

 

[Verse 2:]

We used to play hopscotch and double dutch

You were kinda shy, didn't say too much

Tell me, is the little girl still inside of you?

You had big dreams and your big brown eyes

Tried to be the shiniest star in the sky

But fairytales don't always come true

 

Pretty lies can't disguise

the pain I see in your eyes

You can't fool this whole world

No matter how hard you try

I can't buy what you're selling me

And there's more to the story you ain't telling me

 

[Chorus]

 

You tell me you're okay

At least that's what you say

I see the pain; its clearly written on your face

 Tried to be a star

Didn't get too far

Cause someone took your dreams

and tore it all apart

 

Hear your momma say

To hide the pain

You think its all a game

Now you're all alone

Can't find your way back home

 

[Last of chorus:]

I can't buy what you're selling me...

And there's more to the story you ain't telling me...

 

[Chorus]
