Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I remember that first time I fell in love

I've never been the one to be afraid to jump

And sometimes it hurts

But the world still turns

I remember that first sad broken heart

And I told myself I wouldn't fall apart

So I let it burn

That's how you live and learn

[PreChorus]

It ain't always easy

But it's gonna be alright

[Chorus]

It used to be me hidin' insecurities

With a cigarette and a bottle of whiskey

I was a girl at home in the dark, all alone

Sayin', "Why the hell doesn't he miss me?"

We act so tough like it ain't nothin'

'Cause we don't want them to see

Here's to the girls like me

[Verse 2]

Fast forward, now your old dreams are gone

And you got new priorities

You thought you knew what you wanted

But you had it all wrong

Yeah, it takes a few steps

Just to get it all together

It might hurt now but it won't last forever

Make those mistakes, it'll make you better

[Chorus]

Yeah, it used to be me hidin' insecurities

With a cigarette and a bottle of whiskey

Yeah, I was a girl at home in the dark, all alone

Sayin', "Why the hell doesn't he miss me?"

We act so tough like it ain't nothin'

'Cause we don't want them to see

Here's to the girls like me

[PostChorus]

Here's to the girls like me

Here's to the girls like me

Here's to the girls like me

[Instrumental]

Yeah, it takes a few steps just to get it all together

Make those mistakes that'll make you better

[Chorus]

It used to be me hidin' insecurities

With a cigarette and a bottle of whiskey

I was a girl at home in the dark, all alone

Sayin', "Why doesn't he miss me?"

I wouldn't trade what made ya

The woman you're gonna be

And it's okay if it's not perfect

'Cause it's not meant to be

Here's to the girls like me

[PostChorus]

Here's to the girls like me

Here's to the girls like me

Here's to the girls like me

Girl, you're just like me
