  • She said, I never thought I'd see you here
    Hanging on this side of town
    What's it been, about a year
    Yeah, boy, look at you now
    I heard you got a new job
    Things are takin' off
    Just like I thought they would
    I said it's all good

    But you should see the other guy that's missing you
    Late at night, he's wishin' you would come back home
    Girl, he can't move on
    And his heart still takes a beatin'
    Just livin' with your leavin'
    Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
    But you should see the other guy

    As far as anyone can see
    Things are lookin' up these days
    Only let 'em see this side of me
    The one that's got it made
    Doin' everything I know to do
    To keep the truth
    From runnin' through my mind
    Yeah, I'm doin' fine

    But you should see the other guy that's missing you
    Late at night, he's wishin' you would come back home
    Girl, he can't move on
    And his heart still takes a beatin'
    Just livin' with your leavin'
    Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
    But you should see the other guy

    But you should see the other guy that's missing you
    Late at night, he's wishin' you would come back home
    Girl, he can't move on
    And his heart still takes a beatin'
    Just livin' with your leavin'
    Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
    Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
    But you should see the other guy

    Oh, you should see the other guy Writer/s: Brandon Lynn Kinney, Luke Albert Combs, Rob Williford
