Lyrics
Somebody Else
Dick Wagner, Alan Gordon
If I should make it through this night
Still I'd have to face tomorrow
Oh what I'd give to make it right
What I would not steal or borrow
But tonight
There's so little I can do but close the light
Name my pillow after you and hold on tight
Cause you're holding someone new
Somebody else is getting the best love I ever had
Somebody else is making me so sad
Nobody told me love could hurt so bad
If only I could change your mind
But somehow words have lost all meaning
I poured my life into this rhyme
And still you say I'm only dreaming
And tonight
There is nothing I can do to close the light
Name my pillow after you and hold on tight
Cause you're holding someone new
Somebody else is getting the best love I ever had
Somebody else is making me so sad
Nobody told me love could hurt so bad.
Somebody else is getting closer and closer to you,
Stealing my dreams, making my life bluer than blue.
But tonight
There's so little I can do but close the light
Name my pillow after you and hold on tight
Cause you're holding someone new
Somebody else is getting the best love I ever had
Somebody else is making me so sad
And nobody told me love could hurt so bad.
Somebody else is getting the best love I ever had
Somebody else is making me so sad...
