I can stand it as long as he can cause I just don't need him anymore
He's got it in his mind his leavin's hurt me

That I sit and cry while he paints the town
All this time he's thinking that I need him when really it's the other way around
I can stand it as long as he can cause I just don't need him anymore
[ steel ]
I'll wait here by the phone a few nights longer
I'll give him every chance to save his heart
He's only out dancing with a new love just to keep from falling all apart
I can stand it as long as he can cause I just don't need him anymore
