She finally decides to leave him and move on because she feels more like the "other one" rather than "the one".

Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
The storm is blowin'
I hear the rain beat on the window
I lay here knowin' I'll be alone
I'm wrapped up under the covers
Tear soaked linen at my finger tips
Tonight you're with one of the others
[CHORUS]
Someday, you'll miss me like I missed you
Someday, you'll need me like I needed you
Someday, you'll want me like I wanted you
And you'll be lonely
Someday, you'll look at me like I looked at you
Someday, you'll smile at me like I smiled at you
Someday, you'll love me... and I won't love you
[VERSE 2]
The dawn is dreaded
Soon you'll walk through the front door
Do you think I'm foolish
I can't take it anymore
I'll just pretend I'm sleeping
And that I have no clue of what's been goin' on
I know you've been sleazin'
All night long
[CHORUS]
Someday, you'll miss me like I missed you
Someday, you'll need me like I needed you
Someday, you'll want me like I wanted you
And you'll be lonely
Someday, you'll look at me like I looked at you
Someday, you'll smile at me like I smiled at you
Someday, you'll love me... and I won't love you
[BRIDGE]
What did I do to deserve this
You're going to miss this
Does she know she's the other girl
Or is that girl me?
[CHORUS]
Someday, you'll miss me like I missed you
Someday, you'll need me like I needed you
Someday, you'll want me like I wanted you
And you'll be lonely
Someday, you'll look at me like I looked at you
Someday, you'll smile at me like I smiled at you
Someday, you'll love me... and I won't love you
Someday, you'll think of me like I thought of you
Someday, you'll feel for me like I felt for you
Someday, you'll live for me like I lived for you
Someday
Someday
Someday
