She says: It's not you, it's me
I need a little time, a little space
A place to find myself again
You know?
Oh, yes, I know a goodbye when I hear
It she smiles
But her heart's already out there
Walking down the street

She says
I don't want nobody else
I love you', she's lying
There won't be somebody else
And that's true
She's lying
Say you'll always be my friend
Sweet darling'

Why does she pretend?

Ain't no doubt, it' plain to see
A woman like you's no good for me
Your heart's beating at another door
I'm a damned fool for to ask for more

She says
It's like in a song, remember?
If you love someone, set them free
Well, that's how it is for me
And then she kisses me
And somewhere I hear a door slam
So I say, fine
And just hope that I'm a better liar
Than she is

She says
I don't want nobody else
I love you
She's lying
Say you'll always be my friend
Sweet darling
Why does she pretend?

Ain't no doubt, it' plain to see
A woman like you's no good for me
Your heart's beating at another
Door I'm a damned fool for to ask
For more ain't no doubt, it's
Plain to see
A woman like you's no good for me
Your heart's beating at another
Door I'm a damned fool for to ask
For more

I don't want nobody else
I love you
She's lying
There won't be somebody else
And that's true
She's lying
Say you'll always be my friend
Sweet darling

Why does she pretend?

Ain't no doubt, it' plain to see
A woman like you's no good for me
Your heart's beating at another
Door I'm a damned fool for to ask
For more ain't no doubt, it's
Plain to see
A woman like you's no good for me
Your heart's beating at another
Door I'm a damned fool for to ask
For more
