They passed me by, all of those great romances 
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances 
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy 
And so I dealt you the blow 
One of us had to go 
Now it's different, I want you to know 

One of us is crying 
One of us is lying 
In her lonely bed 
Staring at the ceiling 
Wishing she was somewhere else instead 
One of us is lonely 
One of us is only 
Waiting for a call 
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small 
Wishing she had never left at all 

I saw myself as a concealed attraction 
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action 
Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving 
That's how I started the show 
One of us had to go 
Now I've changed and I want you to know 

One of us is crying 
One of us is lying 
In her lonely bed 
Staring at the ceiling 
Wishing she was somewhere else instead 
One of us is lonely 
One of us is only 
Waiting for a call 
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small 
Wishing she had never left at all 
Never left at all 

Staring at the ceiling 
Wishing she was somewhere else instead 
One of us is lonely 
One of us is only 
Waiting for a call
