"Someone Else's Heartbreak" lyrics

While he was holding you
He only held you back
And to tell the truth
It's for the best it didn't last

Girl you were out of his league
He wasn't worth everything you gave away
I promise it's a good thing
Wouldn't be so hard for me to say

If this were someone else's heartbreak
Someone else's lonely
I'd just tell 'em give it time
But I can't take my own advice
When it's my pain
I swear I'm the only one
That ever loved somebody like I loved him
I'd be sure
That I'd be okay
If it were
But it ain't
Someone else's heartbreak

From the outside in
It seems so black and white
If this were one of my friends
I could find that silver lining

Oh but all I see are grey skies
Looks like a lifetime of pouring rain
Yeah, you're gonna be just fine
Wouldn't be so hard for me to say

If this were someone else's heartbreak
Someone else's lonely
I'd just tell 'em give it time
But I can't take my own advice
When it's my pain
I'm swearing I'm the only one
That's ever loved somebody like I loved him
I'd be sure
That I'd be okay
If it were
But it ain't
Someone else's heartbreak
Oh if it were someone else's heartbreak

Now that it's in my chest
All the right words disappear
How do you tell yourself
What you don't want to hear

If this were someone else's heartbreak
Someone else's lonely
I'd just tell 'em give it time
But I can't take my own advice
When it's my pain
I'm swearing I'm the only one
Who's ever loved somebody like I loved him
I'd be sure
That I'd be okay
If it were
Oh but it ain't
Someone else's heartbreak
No, it isn't someone else's heartbreak
No no no
Someone else's heartbreak
Someone else's heartbreak
