I know ashes slowly burn But every fool has a lesson that's hard to learn It's a desperate plea but I must say Oh God, help me make it just one more day There's a glass on the table beside my bed Where I sleep with a bottle and I wake up dead I got a hole in the bottom of both my shoes Hey, my step's been heavy since I heard the news Hey, and I know just what you'll say When I tell you that I'm sorry that I let you get away Well, you'll know I found out That you're someone else's baby now I see you when I walk down the street Your smile's in the face of everyone I meet Oh, and it tears me up to know that he's touching you Oh, and learning all the secrets that I once knew Hey, and I know just what you'll say When I tell you that I'm sorry that I let you get away Well, you'll know I found out That you're someone else's baby now Do you still leave your clothes piled on the floor Maybe now you're different than you were before She got a new way of walking and a different kiss Oh, to keep you together on a night like this Hey, and I know just what you'll say When I tell you that I'm sorry that I let you get away Well, you'll know I found out That you're someone else's baby now Hey, and I know just what you'll say When I tell you that I'm sorry that I let you get away Well, you'll know I found out That you're someone else's baby now Oh, you're someone else's baby now
