You walked in with me but you walked out with someone else
And left me sittin' here alone all by myself
I thought you were over him but I was wrong
My world just stopped but the band keeps playin' on

They just keep playin' cause they don't notice you are gone
You walked right out on me while they played our favorite song
And before you reached the door my teardrops reached the floor
My world just stopped but the band keeps playin' on
[ guitar ]
You said that you'd forgotten him and no more did you care
But when he walked in your eyes lit up to see him there
Well he asked you to dance and just like that you were gone
My world just stopped but the band keeps playin' on

They just keep playin' cause they don't notice you are gone...
