Talking Behind Your Back

(album: The Lonely, The Lonesome & The Gone - 2017)

Thanks for having lunch with me
The last person that you'd want to see or talk to
I think you know what this is all about
One of us will walk out of here torn in two

You don't trust me as far as you can throw me
Well I'm about to change all that
He's been talking behind your back

We went out for drinks last night
Like always, the conversation went right to you
I had to get it off my chest
So I called, thinking it'd be best if you knew

Please don't tell him who told you
If he should ever ask
He's been talking behind your back

He can't get over what he had with you
This someone new don't stand a chance
You just go on and on and on

He said he doesn't, but I know that he does
It tears me up, that's where he's at
You got him good, and I hate you bad
He's been talking behind your back

I wish I had bad news, wish he loved me, not you
But he can't get over what he had with you
It tears me up, but that's where he's at
You got him good, and I hate you bad
He's been talking behind your back

Thanks for having lunch with me
The last person that you'd want to see or talk to
