Faithless


I drove by last night and saw under your light
That other guy’s car was parked
Tried to drive away I didn’t want to stay
As I slammed my truck door in the dark

I flew up the steps my heart wouldn’t rest
Banging my fist on your door
Margie let me in without even a grin
I rushed past her straight to your door

My boot hit the lock the door gave with a pop
I stood in the middle of your room
He said what the hell I said you ain’t very swell
Haul your ass right out of this room

You crawled out of bed and slapped at my head
How could I be this insane
I knew in that flash it was over at last
I could feel the adrenalin pain

I flashed her a smile said I’d leave in a while
But first you must tell me no lie
It was only last week that you kissed me to sleep
And now I just feel like I’ll die

She reached to my cheek and finally did speak
Somehow I know he’s the one
It happened I think you’d left town for a week
Deep inside I know he’s the one

It’s not about me and finally I see
Somehow she just knows he’s the one
It’s not about me I don’t want to see
Cause I know that she was the one
