Lyrics

(Verse one)

Don't you know
I've got stitches in my heart.
It's been healing now
Ever since we've been apart.

They pull and tug on me
When I see you with her,
But baby don't you see?
That won't occur

oh oh ohhh-woahhh

(Verse 2)

I suppose
All stitches will leave scars
And I'll be left with memories,
Only ours

So I pack up my bags
And move away from here.
I just hope my new love is
Truly sincere

oh oh ohhh-woahhh

(Chorus)

And I'm doin' just fine
Don't you worry about me.
I'll find happiness in time
I'll keep on waiting patiently...

-brief pause-

(Verse 3)

Here I thought
Time would heal all wounds
I never guessed
You'd move on so soon

Take this time
To start fresh and new
And I'll have my chance to
Forget you

oh oh ohhh-woahhh

(Chorus)

And I'm doin' just fine
Don't you worry about me.
I'll find happiness in time
I'll keep on waiting patiently...
