Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Goodbye, girl, because I'm lonely
Goodbye, girl, it isn't over
Goodbye, girl, because it's only love, yeah
Goodbye, girl, you know you own me
Goodbye, girl, yes, I'm a loser
Goodbye, girl, you know it's only love, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm cheating on you, yeah
I'm cheating on you, yeah
I'm cheating on you, yeah
You're cheating on me
[Verse 2]
Goodbye, girl, you are the only one
Goodbye, girl, although you own me
Goodbye, girl, you only owe me love, yeah
Goodbye, girl, well, if you're lonely
Goodbye, girl, why don't you join me?
Goodbye, girl, you know it's only love, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm cheating on you, yeah
I'm thinkin' 'bout you, yeah
I'm cheating on you, yeah
I'm cheating on you
[Bridge]
Oh, watch out
Watch out
I'm cheating on you
[Outro]
Goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
Goodbye, girl
