I'm Not Her Lyrics

I've been hearing 'bout what you've done

You've replaced me with another one

And though you've known her just a couple months

I hear you're sayin' forever soon

And, yeah, I think it's kinda weird

I mean, we were together for so many years

Seems strange to go straight from drying tears

To a wedding

My friends and family have been checking in

To see if I'm doin' alright

And I answer laughing that I'm goddamn happy

To be who I am tonight

'Cause I'm not her

No I'm the one that got away

I'm not her

I'm not the one who has to stay

And I'm feelin' free

'Cause you ain't got a hold on me no more

No no no no no no

You must have swept her off her feet

Yeah, I recall, you did the same to me

So I'm takin' bets on how long til she sees

That she's made a big mistake

'Cause I can't believe that you have changed

Enough to make the vows that you'll exchange

That shit don't happen in just a couple days

But, hey, I could be wrong

My friends and family have been checking in

To see if I'm doin' alright

And I answer laughing that I'm goddamn happy

To be who I am tonight

'Cause I'm not her

No I'm the one that got away

I'm not her

I'm not the one who has to stay

And I'm feelin' free

'Cause you ain't got a hold on me no more

No no no no no no

It's easy to feel angry

When I think of all the time I'd given you

After the way you'd treat me

How I'd forgive and we would start anew

While year by year kept passing

And there was no more laughing

Just screams and tears thrown 'cross the living room

And since we talked of wedding

The horror of imagining

What my life could have been is making me glad that

I'm not her

No I'm the one that got away

I'm not her

I'm not the one who has to stay

And I'm feelin' free

'Cause you ain't got a hold on me no more

No no no no no no

No no no no no no

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh
