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"

She said, "You're not even close

It's someone you don't know

I'm leaving you for me"
