My Best Friend Ran Off With My Man(Verse 1)
We grew up together, sharin' secrets in the hay,
Laughin' 'bout our futures on those hot summer days.
You were my sister, closer than blood could be,
And he was my forever, the only man for me.
We'd sit on the porch swing, sippin' sweet iced tea,
Talkin' 'bout our weddings, how perfect it would be.
But I never saw it comin', the knife in my back so deep...(Chorus)
My best friend ran off with my man,
Left me here with nothin' but tears in my hands.
The truck's gone from the driveway, the ring's off my finger,
And the pain in my heart just keeps on lingerin'.
How could you betray me, after all we've been through?
I trusted you both, now I'm lost without you.
My best friend ran off with my man...
And I don't know if I'll ever understand.(Verse 2)
I found your lipstick on his collar one lonely night,
Heard your laughter echo when he said goodbye.
Packed up his boots and his old guitar case,
Headed down that dirt road to some brand new place.
Now the house feels empty, echoes of what we had,
Memories of barbecues, and the good times turned bad.
I sit here with a cold beer, starin' at the wall...(Chorus)
My best friend ran off with my man,
Left me here with nothin' but tears in my hands.
The truck's gone from the driveway, the ring's off my finger,
And the pain in my heart just keeps on lingerin'.
How could you betray me, after all we've been through?
I trusted you both, now I'm lost without you.
My best friend ran off with my man...
And I don't know if I'll ever understand.(Bridge)
I pray for the day when this hurt fades away,
When I can smile again without feelin' this way.
But double betrayal cuts deeper than one,
Losin' my lover and my closest someone.
Y'all might be happy ridin' off in the sun,
But karma's comin', and your race ain't won.(Final Chorus)
My best friend ran off with my man,
Broke this cowgirl's heart, doin' all that you can.
I'll pick up the pieces, find strength on my own,
Someday I'll be stronger, sittin' here alone.
You took what was mine, but you can't take my soul...
My best friend ran off with my man,
Lord, help me let go.
