Pin my hair up and hope you never see
Through the mask I’m putting on
Handsome, humble but I know you’ll never be
The one I really want

Froze like winter I didn’t make a sound
When I saw her yesterday
Heart was heavy when I looked her up and down
The one who took my man away

That’s the kind of girl he oughtta’ be with
Strong as hell but somehow still the sweetest
Guess at first I didn’t wanna’ see it
That’s the kind of girl he always needed

Take it slow and even though I haven’t cried today
The night has just begun
Think of him and where he’s been as I’m lying wide awake
I’m glad he found someone

That’s the kind of girl he oughtta’ be with
Strong as hell but somehow still the sweetest
Guess at first I didn’t wanna’ see it
That’s the kind of girl he always needed

Wish him well while I’m picking up the pieces
That’s the kind of girl he always needed
