Poor Girl

You've got another love
and I know it
Someone who adores you 
just like me
Hanging on your words
like they were gold
Thinking that she understands
your soul
                                                          Poor Girl
                                                                      Just like me.

You're breaking another heart
and I know it
And there's nothing 
I can do
If I try to tell her 
what I know
She'll misunderstand
and make me go
                                                           Poor Girl
                                                                      Just like me.

You're going to leave her too
and I know it
She'll never know
what made you go
She'll cry and wonder
what went wrong
Then she'll begin 
to sing this song
                                                           Poor Girl
                                                                      Just like me.
