It's really not the ... ...
Step on other people's feet
Now it must be ...ing
'Cos you were going out with him
'Cos you were going out with him
You were going out with him
It's not the same in this town
... ... ... his ...
Wasn't meant to drag him down
But that's exactly what it did
Part of him still wants you
Part of him is still with you
I'm not paralyzed by fear
... hoping makes me pretty ...
Now I sit and think and wait
For him to take it out on me
For him to take it out on me
'Cos you were going out with him
For him to take it out on me
'Cos part of him is still with you
