Chorus
You're not the girl I used to know
You're shadow of yourself
I think I left you long ago
Like a book that has left the shelf
i hear the footsteps down the hall
And I know that someday you will be leaving me for good
Verse 1
I have been waiting here for two straight hours watching you asleep
Wishing I could talk to you
There is no denying we both have emotions running deep
Oh, if I could talk to you
Cause I'm scared
Cuz when I try to take your hand, you are not there
Even though I see the signs you think I'm just scared
Give me one reason why I should hide my fears
When it's killing me inside
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2 
We have been together for so long
You seem a part of me
Just how did this all go wrong
And you say you gave to me your best just to make it work
But just how did this all go wrong
Cuz I try
See my eyes are empty from all the tears I cried
Since this perfect love is hardly satisfied
Give me one reason why I should hide my tears
When it's killing me inside
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
And if I ever come across a girl like you again
I don't know if I will let my emotions show
I'll just look the other way
I don't care what you might say
Cuz I am not so sure how much of this my heart can take
Repeat Chorus till fade

You're not the girl i used to know,You're shadow of yourself,i think i left you long ago,like a book that has left the shelf
Why on Gods green earth is this man so under-rated?? I had an arguement over one of his songs because i believed it to be too original to be his but truth be told, he actually did sing 'not the girl'!!
Yes we (Africans) have great songs that would make anybody want to dance but please, this brotha is world class! Why is he not getting the world acclaim he so rightfully deserves??
Love this song but I like With this woman much better. Darey is definitely a great singer and more people will take notice of him this year

This man call Dare Art Alade is not just a musician but with a different. I do say he has been deprived of many award. See his video hear the voice listen to this lyrics. My brother what else did you want that this guy did not have. If anybody did not give him award i will present him one on my wedding day. Dare you are the son of you father
that's a new word, gbaski. what does it mean? Dare Art-Alade is great, and he's going to go places. He's working hard and can become one of the best R&B singers in Africa, if not the world.
The tone of the Voice sounds like cobhams Asuquo, Compare Darey's "No Stars"
With Not the Girl, Besides Cobhams produced Both tracks. Quite confusing though.
All the same they are both classics, Check out Asa ft Mi on Bibanke remix
nice remix.
I do think Darey sang Not the Girl though.
