THAT OTHER GIRL

You're the girl that's going to break my heart because he isn't going to want me with you around...
I look at you, as you stare at me
And I wonder about our destiny
I never said a word to you,
And you never spoke to me
But somehow I just know…
I know that you’re that girl,
That other girl

The girl that’s gonna break my heart,
Because he isn’t gonna want me with you around.
You’re gonna make up for what I lack
And when I’m not there you’ll pick up the slack
The crumbs I leave; you’re gonna steal
And make yourself a cake.

You’re gonna dot his ‘I’s and cross his ‘t’s
And convince him he’s too good for me
You’re gonna swear that he’s your number one
And make him forget his ‘only one’
You’ll convince him that our love is lust
And that I am not a girl to trust

You’re gonna break my heart into a million pieces and tear me apart.
By making him question this love in my heart..
This love that has nothing to do with you
Looking at you I could’ve said from the start
That you are the girl that’s gonna break my heart,
Because he isn’t gonna want me with you around.

You’re gonna do his job for him.
You’re gonna sabotage me and shatter my dreams
And change our status to "not meant to be"
And it’s fine cause I could survive a broken heart,
But I wanted it to be broken by him, not by you,
And that’s what hurts the most.

Because I understand him,
And I understand me,
But I don’t understand you.
I don’t know what you’re doing here (how you got here)
Why can’t you go back and tell whoever sent you that you didn’t see us.
And that we were no where to be found.

Because I gave him permission
To love me or leave me
To do as he choose
But who gave you permission?

I feel so lost and I need to be found,
Because he isn’t gonna want me with you around.
