Amerie - Paint Me Over Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lonely days and lonely nights are waiting for me
But I gotta leave
From the day rise up until the night falls down
I'm losin myself, so I can't stay around
[Hook]
I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect
But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore
So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love
You tried to mold me
And I thought that I would please you more
[Chorus]
You want me to be what you want me to be
But you can't
I tried my best to be your everything
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
Oh Ohhh
[Verse 2]
I close my eyes and memorize the girl that I was
Before there was us
Hard to remember, it's been so long since she's been around
I gave up myself, and still
I let you down
[Hook]
I'm still the girl that you met, you called me perfect
But now you're changin' I'm not good enough anymore
So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love
You tried to mold me
And I thought that I would please you more
[Chorus]
You want me to be what you want me to be
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
I tried my best to be your everything
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
Oh Ohh
[Bridge]
I must have fought for your heart
If it was mine from the start
Your love's conditional
Mine I let you have for free
You had a price to your love, and gladly I gave it up
And now there's nothing left
Because I let you change all of me
[Chorus]
You want me to be what you want me to be
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
I tried my best to be your everything
But you can't
Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh

still loving this song
Sooo underrated!!! This album was the SHIT.
This song 💜😢
Who listenin in 2017
This song says it all.
Amerie has one of the most horrible voices in the industry hands down. If she was not pretty and mixed she would have never made it. I can only listen to her fast dance hits because those songs have great production. Her slow songs make me want to jump off a cliff. She should have stuck to doing dance anthems.
Ajay Cbaby you sound like a dark skinned hater
Ajay Cbaby Don't be a dark-skinned hater.
R u serious? 😁😁 Amerie is vocal beast! Her harmonies are everything and it's not something you can just mix or mastered in studio! You need to add that extra something! And Amerie CAN sing smh...
Oh well, thanks for the view and comment.
She went to college, graduated, having a 4.0 for music/dance arts. What do you have?
Such a heart-breaking song, but I love it how you need to love yourself enough to walk away from a relationship.
I can listen to this all day!!! She is so underrated!!!!
love this song
LOVE HER, LOVE THIS SONG
I can't stand him thats why it's over 😤
2016 Anyone still listening.
yup, heck yeah. Amerie, all the way.

missmeonbs 2k18

Cam'ron - D Rugs
hollabklyn7 You takin me back!!!! I listened to Prophecy with Kelly Price, then D Rugs. My fav two songs on that album!!!
Hey! If you have time, can you watch my cover of this song "Paint Me Over"
Hey! I really admire Amerie! I covered her song "Paint Me Over" Watch it if you get a chance, thanks!
I know this is a sample itself, but if you guys like this beat, Joe Budden did a song and sampled it too, its called "All of Me", if you like rap you might like it.
this is one of my favorite songs of all time
