a girl wonders if her boyfriend still loves his ex-girlfriend
                                  You still speak her name with
                                            A certain softness
                                            Did you know that?
                                        They tell me you like me
                                      You say you can't go back
                                But she's still a part of your heart
                                          Forever in your heart
                                They say she's in a relationship
                                      You say you've moved on
                                          But have you really?
                                              Can you really?
                                            You were in love
                                        More than I'll ever know
                                  And the goodbye broke your heart
                                        It wasn't what you wanted
                                          But you let her go
                                            It was time to go


                                          I want to say yes
                                    But I'm not strong enough
                                    To be the number-two girl
                                  The one you have to settle for
                                          When she's gone
                                        And can't come back
                                    I don't want to live like this
                                      Wondering what you'd do
                                        If she saw the truth
                                              Believed it
                                      Turned her life around
                                      And came back to you
                                    Who would you choose?
                                    Maybe the answer comes
                                When you speak her name with
                                        A certain softness
