Christine Lavin - Replaced Lyrics
Christine Lavin"Replaced"I have been replaced in your life. Why am I surprised?I'm the one who walked away; you're the one who cried.Now I hear that you've recovered; I should be relieved.Instead I hide under the covers at night; I dream in black and white,Second guess my every move, try not to think of you.Because I have been replaced in your life, a blow to my pride.It's been just a couple of months since we were side by side.Now I see that you go strolling by with someone else,While I continue on alone heading for parts unknown,Making solitary plans, braving the storms the best I can.If it's true that women mourn while men replace,Who's the stronger? Who's the weaker? Why should it matter in any case?I have been replaced in your life; the turning of the tidesHas washed away your heartache, opened mine up wide.Now I feel an old familiar hurt from years agoAnd I know I've gone through this before, a different battle, a distant war.When the odd man out evens the score, it leaves you craving just a little bit more.I have been replaced,I have been replaced,I have been replaced in your life.I have been replaced in your life
