The Lyrics of Sorry I'm Here For Someone Else:
I'm sorry I'm here for someone else
But it's good to see your face
And I really hope you're doing well
I hope you're doing well
She was running late for dinner south side of town
Left the phone a little bitter but it's cool for now
Far from perfect for each other but we're working it out I suppose
Now I'm waiting at the diner looking traumatized
'Cause you walk up to the table with an order of fries
And I know ya yes I know ya
Used to love you
And I said
"I'm sorry I'm here for someone else
It's good to see your face"
And I really hope you're doing well
I hope you're doing well
I'm sorry I'm here for someone else
I wish that I could stay
Talk at the bar all by ourselves
But I'm here for someone else
When she finally walks into the restaurant
Hate to say it but I knew it I was already gone
Oh Benny don't do it
You're breaking her heart
Benny don't do it Benny don't do it
But I need to go
It's not personal
And I said
"I'm sorry I'm here for someone else
It's good to see your face"
And I really hope you're doing well
I hope you're doing well
I'm sorry I'm here for someone else
I know you wish that I could stay
Talk at the bar all by ourselves
But I'm here for someone else
I'm still in love with you
I'm going outta my mind
I couldn't take it anymore
I was already running for the kitchen doors
You were always the one I should've waited for
I can't lose you again not again not again not again
