He takes me to the places you and I use to go
He tells me over and over that he loves me so
He gives me love that I never got from you
He loves me too 

His love is true
But why can't he be you
He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind
And I'm lucky to have such a guy I hear it all the time
And he does all the things that you would never do

He loves me too 
His love is true
But why can't he be you
Oh he's not the one who dominates my mind and my soul

And I should love him so 'cause he loves me I know
But his kisses leave me cold
He sends me flowers
Calls on the hour
Just to prove his love
And my friends say that when he's around 
I'm all he speaks of
And he does all the things that you would never do

He loves me too
His love is true
But why can't he be you
