about

Fades-in, missing half the song. A country-tinged ode to the angst of lost love.

lyrics

SOMEBODY ELSE
by WD Picou

Somebody else sleeps on your pillow
Somebody else turns out the light
Somebody else to see in dreamland
Somebody else all through the night
All through the night All through the night
Once I saw my picture
There up on your shelf
Now I see you've put the frame
Around somebody else
Somebody else Somebody else

Somebody else pulls on the covers
Somebody else to call your name
Somebody else to light your candle
Somebody else to burn the flame
Burn the flame Burn the flame
Once I saw my name
In a book up on your shelf
Now between the covers
You write somebody else
Somebody else Somebody else

Somebody else to keep a secret
Somebody else to hold you tight
Somebody else to see in dreamland
Somebody else all through the night
Memories and souvenirs
Sit up on your shelf
Now I see you've filled my space
With somebody else
Somebody else Somebody else
