Lyrics:
THE OTHER WOMAN
(Julie Ferris - Robert Clay)
She walked in, to our favorite cafe
Your nervous smile told me she was the one.
Your affair - Oh it almost broke us up
When she walked by, clearly she was stunned.
chorus: As she turned and looked back
I almost had to laugh.
At that very moment
I was the other woman.
She sat down, I watched her cross her legs
I pictured them out running ‘round with you.
So that’s her - Heartache finally had a face
I’d bet my wedding ring, she thought that too.
- chorus
As she left, I knew just how she felt.
The pain of losing you was the pain I lived.
I forgave the mistake you made with her
That took more love than she could ever give.
- chorus
