[Verse 1]
I saw your taillights fade
Past the bait shop sign
Your voicemail still in my phone
Like a thorn in twine
You said it was just a friend
But I knew that grin
Now the porch light burns for two
And I’m back again
[Pre-Chorus]
Is this the reason you left me for him
Tell me straight, don’t dress it up
I kept your name in my Sunday shirt
You tore it up
[Chorus]
Is this the reason you left me for him
(Left me for him)
Don’t let the love we had
Hit you with a lie
We won’t forget
(We won’t forget)
We won’t forget
When the truth cuts in
[Verse 2]
Your ring left a pale white mark
On the sink by dawn
His truck parked close to the fence
Like he owned our lawn
You took my best years, baby
Made a stage of pain
Now the whole damn town can hear
What I couldn’t say
[Pre-Chorus]
Is this the reason you left me for him
Tell me straight, don’t dress it up
I kept your name in my Sunday shirt
You tore it up
[Chorus]
Is this the reason you left me for him
(Left me for him)
Don’t let the love we had
Hit you with a lie
We won’t forget
(We won’t forget)
We won’t forget
When the truth cuts in
[Bridge]
If you call tonight
I might let it ring
But I still taste every promise
You said in spring
And if he’s all you wanted
Why does it hurt this bad
Why you look right through me
Like I’m all you had
[Final Chorus]
Is this the reason you left me for him
(Left me for him)
Don’t let the love we had
Hit you with a lie
We won’t forget
(We won’t forget)
We won’t forget
When the truth cuts in
