The Other Guy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can tell by the way that he's going on
He just don't have a clue what he's got at home
Every night, running up the streets with the guys
While you're fast asleep thinking that
You just won't see nothing at all
But he don't know that
Every time he breaks your heart
Girl, I'm the first one that you call
Every time he lets you down
I'm there to catch you when you fall
But, girl, it’s killing to me to go another day
And I can't take no more
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be there every time he makes you cry
I don't wanna be there when he doesn't treat you right
I don't wanna be that person in your life
Don't wanna be the other guy
I don't wanna be there every time he treats you bad
I don't wanna be the best thing that you never had
I don't wanna be here left out on the side
Don't wanna be the other guy no more
And it’s killing me that he don't understand
How lucky he should feel to be your man
'Cause to him you're just another girl
But to me, you would be my world
Just think about it, girl
It was me
Who made you laugh all the times you cried
When the tears rolled down your face
It was me
The one who held you close
Letting you know that everything will be okay
It was me
Right from the start, but I never had your heart
'Cause you gave it to someone who didn't care
Now I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be there every time he makes you cry
I don't wanna be there when he doesn't treat you right
I don't wanna be that person in your life
Don't wanna be the other guy
I don't wanna be there every time he treats you bad
I don't wanna be the best thing that you never had
I don't wanna be here left out on the side
Don't wanna be the other guy
Listen girl
I wanna be the one to love you
I wanna be the one to kiss you
I wanna be the one to treat you right
And spend my whole life with you
Wanna be the one you see when you wake up
And hold you in my arms after we make love
Gotta be your everything
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be there every time he makes you cry
I don't wanna be there when he doesn't treat you right
I don't wanna be that person in your life
Don't wanna be the other guy
I don't wanna be there every time he treats you bad
I don't wanna be the best thing that you never had
I don't wanna be here left out on the side
Don't wanna be the other guy
