[Female Vocalist] [Melisma]
[Movement 1]
When you broke my heart,
You thought all I would do Is cry,
Like I would lose-myself over you,
Deciding to walk out that door,
Deciding to leave me alone,
Deciding our Loves- Not enough,
Deciding our fate for us,
But baby—
Didn’t you fool yourself,
When you saw that I,
Put on my makeup that night,
You decided to break my heart,
You decided to break my heart,
Didn’t you think I’d fall apart,
When you decided to break my heart,
You thought I'd spend my nights
Waiting by the telephone—
But baby, look at me now—
I'm better on my own.
You thought I'd sit around
And wonder where you are,
Wonder who you're with,
Wonder if you're thinking of me.
Oh, but honey—
I got a life to live,
And I've got love to give,
And I don't need somebody
Who don't know what love is.
You made your decision,
So I made mine too.
You chose to lose me—
And I chose to choose me.
But baby—
Didn’t you fool yourself,
When you saw that I,
Put on my makeup that night,
You decided to break my heart,
You decided to break my heart,
Didn’t you think I’d fall apart,
When you decided to break my heart,
You thought I'd spend my nights
Waiting by the telephone—
But baby, look at me now—
I'm better on my own.
[Movement 2]
I’m better on my own-
I’m better on my own-
I’m better on my own-
I’m better on my own-
I caught you looking
When you thought I didn't see.
Funny how you changed your mind
When I changed me.
Now you're standing there,
Trying to remember
What you had in your hands...
But you let it go.
And baby-
I'm not sure I want it back.
You walked away—
I got dressed.
I looked my best.
Now you're looking at me
Like you want me back...
[Movement 3]
Didn't you fool yourself?
I caught you looking,
When you thought I didn't see,
Didn't you fool yourself? Oh baby
Didn't you fool yourself? Oh baby
Oh-
I caught you looking,
When you thought I didn't see,
Didn't you fool yourself? Oh baby
Didn't you fool yourself?
I caught you looking when you thought I didn't see,
[Movement 4]
You thought I'd miss you...
Maybe I did.
You thought I'd need you...
Maybe I did.
But look at me now—
Tell me...
Do I look like you thought I would?
Like, a woman, who-would-cry-over a man-
I threw a party when you walked away,
I threw a party when you walked away,
Do I look like a woman who-
who-would-cry-over a man-
I threw a party when you walked away,
I threw a party when you walked away-
I threw a party when you walked away,
I threw a party when you walked away
