They passed me by,
All of those great romances.
You were, I felt, robbing me
Of my rightful chances.
My picture clear.
Everything seemed so easy.
And so I dealt you the blow
One of us had to go.
Now it's different,
I want you to know.
One of us is crying.
One of us is lying
In a lonely bed.
Staring at the ceiling,
Wishing she was somewhere else instead.
One of us is lonely.
One of us is only
Waiting for a call.
Sorry for herself.
Feeling stupid, feeling small.
Wishing she had never left at all.
I saw myself as a concealed attraction.
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action.
Just like a child,
Stubborn and misconceiving.
That's how I started the show.
One of us had to go.
Now I'm changed and I want you to know
One of us is crying.
One of us is lying
In a lonely bed.
Staring at the ceiling,
Wishing she was somewhere else instead.
One of us is lonely.
One of us is only
Waiting for a call.
Sorry for herself.
Feeling stupid, feeling small.
Wishing she had never left at all.
Never left at all.
Staring at the ceiling,
Wishing she was somewhere else instead.
