Lyrics
THE NEXT ME
Ed Bentley / Jon Philibert edbentley@mail.com
(Verse 1)
Why didn't I listen, I knew how she felt
She said, "If I'm always alone, I can do that by myself"
The night it was over, I guess I always knew
She said, "I didn't need much... I just needed you"
Now someone else will be
(Chorus)
The next me, I can't help but wonder
If there's somebody new, will he really love her
Thinking back now, all I can see
I was making it easy, for the next me
(Verse 2)
If I'd treated her better, she might still be around
My mind keeps racing -- Is there a new love she's found
That guy at the office, I can't think of his name
Or her best friend's brother -- wasn't he an old flame
(Bridge)
She won't take my calls, I've tried and I tried
Every night I lay here, dying inside
I need to see her, my heart's on the line
Wondering if she's, really moved on this time
(Final Chorus)
The next me, that's who I'll be
The man she always, saw in me
I showed up tonight, told her how much I care
Promised her that, I'll always be there
She looked at me, the way she used to do
She said okay, "I still see, the good in you"
Now there won't have to be,
A next me
(Tag)- No there never be, a next me
