Somebody Else

I always tried to look good

When I knew I would see you

I used to think twice about what should I say

Or what should I do

I knew your favorite restaurants

The lyrics to your favorite songs

I used to try to love the things you love the most

I hope you know

It was cause of you

And maybe I tried too hard

To break apart too fast

I fell in love with the story

Without reading the rest

I've been crying on my bed

Should've predicted it myself

Your heart always belonged to

Somebody else

I bet she is perfect for you

She is so pretty and she seems so cool

I see the way that she makes you laugh

Wish I could too

And you probably take her to the places

I always thought we should've gone

You probably ask her to dance in the living room

To the sound of Elton John

And maybe I tried too hard

To break apart too fast

I fell in love with the story

Without reading the rest

I've been crying on my bed

Should've predicted it myself

Your heart always belonged to

Somebody else

I would try to go to the beach in the summer

'Cause I knew you'd be there too

I would try to like going out to the parties

So maybe I could run into you

I would change every little piece of me

So maybe you'd love me just a little bit

But it never worked

'Cause I'm not like her

And maybe I tried too hard

To break apart too fast

I fell in love with the story

Without reading the rest

One day I won't have to change

A single part of myself

When my heart belong to

Somebody else
