Someone Else

Lyrics

I hear she's living well now Exactly where she won't tell now But she never told me very much before Anyhow So while I'm sick and drinking Everything in sight and it's sinking me She's getting fancy for the town She puts her perfume on You know my favorite one She puts her hair in a bun Just like she's always done She puts the sheets on the bed And paints her fingernails red But this isn't for me There's someone else instead He finds her perfume pretty Catching it as they're sitting At some adorable local place A darling scene He watches as she's speaking He's thinking what I'm always thinking of As if it's some epiphany That only he has seen But one day she'll be standing By the mirror on the landing Before she prances out the door with bells Well, well, well For someone else For someone else She puts her perfume on You know my favorite one She puts her hair in a bun Just like she's always done She puts the sheets on the bed And paints her fingernails red But this isn't for me She's someone else instead This isn't for me There's someone else instead No, this isn't for me There's someone else instead There's someone else instead
