Last night I went on a date with a boy who called me, "Green Eyes"
'Cause my friends told me I'd feel better after the first time
And kissin' someone new would make losing you feel alright
I don't feel alright
So I drank all the wine, tried not to cry, and I almost did
Wouldn't let him hold my hand at the bar where you did
And I got drunk enough to take him home and I wish I didn't
I don't feel alright
'Cause you're gone, so why do I feel like a cheater?
Why do I feel like a liar?
Why do I feel like my heart is breaking in my chest?
How long 'til I finally feel like it's over?
Not looking over my shoulder
Wishing all the other boys were you
I shouldn't feel it but I do
Cheater
Cheater
Cheater
We smoked cigarettes and I acted like I liked him
And his beard was rough when he kissed me, I didn't like that
And I'll never hear that Patty Griffin record without seeing his face
And that's a shame
'Cause you're gone, so why do I feel like a cheater?
Why do I feel like a liar?
Why do I feel like my heart is breaking in my chest?
How long 'til I finally feel like it's over?
Not looking over my shoulder
Wishing all the other boys were you
I shouldn't feel it but I do
Cheater
Cheater
Oh, cheater
Oh, we said goodbye 'cause it wasn't right
But now everything else seems so wrong
If you're gone, why do I feel like a cheater?
Why do I feel like a liar?
I still feel like my heart is breaking in my chest
How long 'til I finally feel like it's over?
I'm wishing all the other boys were you
I shouldn't feel it but I do
The whole world gets meaner without you
Cheater
Cheater
Cheater
Cheater
Oh, cheater
