She Likes Me a Lot (But She Loves Him)

My baby broke up with her boyfriend
Right before we met
We’ve had two good years together
But she ain’t over him yet
Sometimes they talk on the telephone
They feel connected
I feel alone

I can still make her laugh but not as much
As I used to do
I don’t know if we’re just getting started
Or if we are through
She says I’m making all this stuff up
But it’s been two months
Since we made love

Chorus:
She likes everything about me
Except that I ain’t him
I’m trying as hard as I can
My chances look pretty slim
I’m haunted by a past
That I wasn’t involved in
She likes me a lot
But she loves him

Maybe when it’s all been said and done
We will be OK
But from where I stand it don’t look like
It will turn out that way
We just keep drifting further apart
And let me tell you
It breaks my heart

Chorus:
She likes everything about me
Except that I ain’t him
I’m trying as hard as I can
My chances look pretty slim
I’m haunted by a past
That I wasn’t involved in
She likes me a lot
But she loves him

She likes me a lot
But she loves him
