I know the two of you used to talk like every day
And ever since I came around, it hasn't been the same
You probably got a dart board of my face right in the middle
He sleeps in my bed, I met his parents, it's official
Please don't take it personally, some things are just meant to be
Don't waste all your energy, we both know that he loves me
Oh honey, you deserve it, I know you're gonna find somebody perfect
Please don't take it personally, some things are just meant to be
You're so beautiful, it's still hard for me to swallow
I used to get so jealous, I would stress eat, drown my sorrows
In a bottle of vodka, and then I remembered that he doesn't want ya
No, he doesn't want ya
Please don't take it personally, some things are just meant to be
Don't waste all your energy, we both know that he loves me
Oh honey, you deserve it, I know you're gonna find somebody perfect
Please don't take it personally, some things are just meant to be
Forever, forever, forever, oh, forever
Forever and ever
Please don't take it personally
