As we passed in the hall
She said, "We need to talk
I can't go on like this another day"
I froze in my tracks
And a chill ran up my back
'Cause I knew what she was gonna say
She said, "There's someone else
And I've kept it to myself
But I can't keep these feelings locked inside
And I need to tell you this
It's one of your old friends
One, you haven't talked to in a while"
She said, "I'm leavin'
And there's nothing you can do"
I said, "I had a feeling
You found somebody new
And I'll bet I can guess his name
But it's so hard to believe
'Cause she said, "You're not even close
It's someone you don't know
I'm leaving you for me"
I just stood there at a loss for words
Tryin' to catch my breath
'Cause I knew that it was over when she said
"I'm leaving
And there's nothing you can do
And I said, "I had a feeling
That you found somebody new"
And I'll bet I can guess his name
But it's so hard to believe
Oh she said, "You're not even close
It's someone you don't know
I'm leaving you for me"
