Somebody Else's Baby

She’s got a box full of letters,
that she looks through every day,
she must know every word by heart.
She’s somebody else’s baby,
the kind that will tell you right away,
and she’s not tearing herself apart.
She’s twice my age but I don’t care
I can see her house from here
I want a small place in her heart
I can be the gap between the beats
Crackin' her voice when the tour is hard
There’s probably not much that I can do,
but I’m alone and so are you
I know a place safe from the dark
It’s far away but it’s within reach
If you’re okay with company.
Getting back at you
Getting back at him
Getting back to you
And all he ever did was lead you on
She’s got a box full of letters
That she re-reads every night
Now’s the bar’s about to close
She’s somebody else’s baby,
but as far as I can see
I am the only one he knows
She’s twice my age but I don’t care
I can see her house from here
She’s twice my age but I don’t care
I can see her house from here
Just say the word and I’ll be there
Getting back at you
Getting back at him
Getting back to you
And all he ever did was do you wrong
Do you wrong, do you wrong.
Now all he ever did was do you wrong.
