She Gets What I Deserve

She doesn't know me by name

But I know everything about her

She likes to work in her rose garden

And vacation in New Hampshire

She gets him every holiday

And every Sunday afternoon

By 8, she tucks his babies in

I know she loves him like I do

And I wanted to call her so many times

But I never found the nerve

She gets what I deserve

Oooh, yeah

It's not the way that I planned

Just the right man, the wrong time

Even the moments he's holdin' me

I know he's not really mine

When I appear into the windows of the home

I'm torn apart

I can't help but wonder

Whatever happened to my heart

Such an uninvited lesson

I never meant to learn

She gets what I deserve

I can't whitewash my excuses

I can't cover up the stain

I can't give back what I've taken

I should be the one to bare the pain

I just pray that God forgives me

For what I've done to her

She gets what I deserve

She gets what I deserve
