[Verse 1]
I say this is over
This is over
It's not true
That I didn't matter
I did matter
[Verse 2]
You say
You're going away
You're going away
New York
For more than a day
For more than a day
[Bridge]
Oh, boy
You're doing okay
A wife on the way
It's my fault
I thought I would stay
But what can I say?
[Hook]
I made love to another one
To another one
I made love to another one
To another one
I made love to another one
To another one
I made love to another one
To another one
I made love to another one
To another one
I made love to another one
To another one
