She's Actin' Single (I'm Drinkin' Doubles)
Wayne Carson Thompson
I've seen men look at her before
And they think, I don't see
I'd like to think it makes me proud
But, I'm only fooling me
I know she'll be lookin' back
The minute I'm not there
While she pours herself on some stranger
I pour myself a drink somewhere
She's actin' single
I'm drinkin' double
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
My heart is breaking
Like the tiny bubbles
She's actin' single
I'm drinkin' doubles
I know all she plans to do
But I don't know where or when
If I ask who that stranger was
She'll just say, "an old friend"
I'm not weak, I tell myself
I stay because I'm strong
The truth is, I'm not man enough
To stop her from doing me wrong
She's actin' single
I'm drinkin' doubles
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
My heart is breaking
Like the tiny bubbles
She's actin' single
I'm drinkin' doubles
She's actin' single
I'm drinkin' doubles
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
I've seen men look at her before
He visto a hombres mirarla antes
And they think, I don't see
Y piensan, yo no veo
I'd like to think it makes me proud
Me gustaría pensar que me hace sentir orgulloso
But, I'm only fooling me
Pero, solo me estoy engañando a mí mismo
I know she'll be lookin' back
Sé que ella estará mirando atrás
The minute I'm not there
En el minuto que no esté allí
While she pours herself on some stranger
Mientras ella se entrega a algún desconocido
I pour myself a drink somewhere
Yo me sirvo una bebida en algún lugar
She's actin' single
Ella está actuando como soltera
I'm drinkin' double
Yo estoy bebiendo el doble
I hide my pain
Oculto mi dolor
I drown my troubles
Ahogo mis problemas
My heart is breaking
Mi corazón se está rompiendo
Like the tiny bubbles
Como las pequeñas burbujas
She's actin' single
Ella está actuando como soltera
I'm drinkin' doubles
Yo estoy bebiendo el doble
I know all she plans to do
Sé todo lo que ella planea hacer
But I don't know where or when
Pero no sé dónde ni cuándo
If I ask who that stranger was
Si le pregunto quién era ese desconocido
She'll just say, "an old friend"
Ella solo dirá, "un viejo amigo"
I'm not weak, I tell myself
No soy débil, me digo a mí mismo
I stay because I'm strong
Me quedo porque soy fuerte
The truth is, I'm not man enough
La verdad es que no soy lo suficientemente hombre
To stop her from doing me wrong
Para evitar que ella me haga daño
She's actin' single
Ella está actuando como soltera
I'm drinkin' doubles
Yo estoy bebiendo el doble
I hide my pain
Oculto mi dolor
I drown my troubles
Ahogo mis problemas
My heart is breaking
Mi corazón se está rompiendo
Like the tiny bubbles
Como las pequeñas burbujas
She's actin' single
Ella está actuando como soltera
I'm drinkin' doubles
Yo estoy bebiendo el doble
She's actin' single
Ella está actuando como soltera
I'm drinkin' doubles
Yo estoy bebiendo el doble
I hide my pain
Oculto mi dolor
I drown my troubles
Ahogo mis problemas
I've seen men look at her before
Ho visto uomini guardarla
And they think, I don't see
E loro pensano, che io non veda
I'd like to think it makes me proud
Mi piacerebbe pensare che mi rende orgoglioso
But, I'm only fooling me
Ma, sto solo ingannando me stesso
I know she'll be lookin' back
So che lei guarderà indietro
The minute I'm not there
Nel minuto in cui non ci sarò
While she pours herself on some stranger
Mentre si getta su qualche sconosciuto
I pour myself a drink somewhere
Mi verso da bere da qualche parte
She's actin' single
Lei sta agendo da single
I'm drinkin' double
Io bevo il doppio
I hide my pain
Nascondo il mio dolore
I drown my troubles
Annego i miei problemi
My heart is breaking
Il mio cuore si sta spezzando
Like the tiny bubbles
Come le piccole bolle
She's actin' single
Lei sta agendo da single
I'm drinkin' doubles
Io bevo il doppio
I know all she plans to do
So tutto quello che ha intenzione di fare
But I don't know where or when
Ma non so dove o quando
If I ask who that stranger was
Se chiedo chi era quello sconosciuto
She'll just say, "an old friend"
Lei dirà solo, "un vecchio amico"
I'm not weak, I tell myself
Non sono debole, mi dico
I stay because I'm strong
Resto perché sono forte
The truth is, I'm not man enough
La verità è, non sono abbastanza uomo
To stop her from doing me wrong
Per impedirle di farmi del male
She's actin' single
Lei sta agendo da single
I'm drinkin' doubles
Io bevo il doppio
I hide my pain
Nascondo il mio dolore
I drown my troubles
Annego i miei problemi
My heart is breaking
Il mio cuore si sta spezzando
Like the tiny bubbles
Come le piccole bolle
She's actin' single
Lei sta agendo da single
I'm drinkin' doubles
Io bevo il doppio
She's actin' single
Lei sta agendo da single
I'm drinkin' doubles
Io bevo il doppio
I hide my pain
Nascondo il mio dolore
I drown my troubles
Annego i miei problemi
