You know he's not the one for you But that's no fault of mine He knows that I'm a friend of yours But doesn't know I've crossed the line I know you've got a man in the picture But it hasn't stopped me yet We've all been in one situation or another We regret
Now I'm the other man No one's rooting for me If I'm the other man Nature will abhor me
You know I wanna keep my distance 'Cause it's happenin?anyway He knows you're gonna drift apart And there's nothing he can say I know that he's a stand up guy But that's none of my concern We've all been in one situation or another And it's my turn
To be the other man No one sympathises When you're the other man Everyone despises
He's gonna find out that the rumours are true Though they are still unbeknownst to you He'll find out so I'll tell you because You gotta find out before he does
