she said that shed take it off right here

give him back his ring,
to stay with me
she must think thats what i want to hear
good as it may sound,
i know myself that that cant be
and i didnt feel bad about it until right then
had to remind her that we were just pretend
i said baby i want you,
but he needs you

ill never love you like hell
see i only want you
but baby he needs you
stay with the real thing,

baby please dont cry dont cry
i thought you knew what this was
baby never coulda take the place
of your husband no
but well always be friends
baby we shouldnt have become lovers
and i didnt feel bad about it till right then
had to remind her that we were just pretend
i said baby i want you,
but he needs you
stay with the real thing
ill never love you like hell
see i only want you only want you
baby he needs you he needs you
stay with the real thing,
Baby stay with the real thing
