[English]

See her face in my head when I lie on my back

In his bedroom

Hear her voice when he asks if I like it like that

And it's all doomed

He looks so proud, like the only thing I faked is a smile

I entertain him, haven't felt anything for a while

Guess she won, thought I'd be fine if my heart's not in it

Just this once, can I have fun for one goddamn minute?

Without thinking of her, thinking of her, thinking of her

He's in me, but I'm thinking of her, thinking of her, thinking of her

Wondering why you showed me how good it could be

That was so cruel

When you lie on your back, are you thinking of me?

How we used to

Go on a drive until you'd run out of your cigarettes

To find a dive bar that we haven't ruined, yet

Guess she won, thought I'd be fine if my heart's not in it

Just this once, can I have fun for one goddamn minute?

Without thinking of her, thinking of her, thinking of her

He's in me, but I'm thinking of her, thinking of her, thinking of her

And the perfume on your pillow, it's addictive

It's got me sleeping on your side, a different high

And I'm searching for your shadow with the lights out

When I wake up in the dead of night, now I'm paralyzed

Because I'm thinking of her, thinking of her, thinking of her

Because I'm thinking of her, thinking of her, thinking of her

Can't stop thinking of her, ooh

Can't stop thinking of her, her

In the dead of night, hold my pillow tight

'Cause you're out of sight, but not out of mind (can't stop thinking of her)

Do you miss my hands wrapped around your waist?

Do you picture me when she's at your place? (Ooh)

And the worst of all is I missed your call

And I'm all alone, feeling vulnerable (can't stop thinking of her)

Now you won't pick up
