Chorus:

Somebody else is taking my place.
Somebody else now shares your embrace,
While I am trying, To keep from crying,
You go around with a smile on your face.
Little you care for vows that you made.

Little you care how much I have paid,

My heart is aching, My heart is breaking,

For Somebody's taking my place.
