She Takes My Place - ArlenaZara
I drove by the house that we painted in spring
And saw she was sitting right there on the swing
She's drinking her coffee from my favorite cup
While I am just trying to keep my head up
She's riding around in the passenger seat
And walking my dog down our quiet old street
She takes my place
She takes my life
She gets the dream of being your wife
You erased my name and you cleared out my space
To make all the room for her brand new face
I gave you my years
I gave you my grace
But you opened the door
And she takes my place
Your mother just met her and said she was sweet
While I am just out here dragging my feet
She gets to hold you when everything's wrong
And listen to all of your favorite songs
You look at her now like you used to look here
And make my whole memory just disappear
How do you build up a castle so high
Just to tear it all down and not even cry
I am watching the ending of all that we planned
As she slips her fingers right into your hand
Cause she takes my place
She takes my life
She gets the dream of being your wife
You erased my name and you cleared out my space
To make all the room for her brand new face
I gave you my years
I gave you my grace
But you opened the door
And she takes my place
My whole life
Ended over so fast
I am nothing but the past
I am walking away now
She takes my place
