Maybe my baby's got a new man Who can take her where she wants to go (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know I call her on the telephone But she's never where she's supposed to be Lately when we're all alone Well it seems she don't want any part of me Don't you know I'm gonna lose my mind If there's someone else after all this time (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new man Who can take her where she wants to go (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know (Well somethin' tells me) Maybe my baby's got a new guy And he's really puttin' on a show (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know I can't believe it's come to this But my heart keeps tellin' me there's somethin' wrong I feel the difference in her kiss I want to know what I'll do when she's really gone Well, don't you know I'm gonna lose my mind If there's someone else after all this time (I keep thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new man Who can take her where she wants to go Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know (Well somethin' tells me) Maybe my baby's got a new guy And he's really puttin' on a show (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know I can't seem to pin her down Friends tell me all I'm getting is the runaround I'm sitting home and it's Saturday night Is she moving in with someone else tonight Maybe my baby's got a new man Who can take her where she wants to go (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know (Well somethin' tells me) Maybe my baby's got a new guy And he's really puttin' on a show (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know Yes, and I'm not supposed to know And I'm not supposed to know Maybe my baby's got a new man Who can take her where she wants to go (I'm thinking) Maybe my baby's got a new lover And I'm not supposed to know
