Story Behind The Song
Broke up with a longterm boyfriend that I still loved, because I realized it wasn't meant to be. He turned around and got engaged a few months later. It definitely hurt, as I was still on the mend. After all that, though, I knew I had made the right decision.
I am glad I could finally put how I felt into words and music.

Lyrics
(Verse one)
Don't you know
I've got stitches in my heart.
It's been healing now
Ever since we've been apart.
They pull and tug on me
When I see you with her,
But baby don't you see?
That won't occur
oh oh ohhh-woahhh
(Verse 2)
I suppose
All stitches will leave scars
And I'll be left with memories,
Only ours
So I pack up my bags
And move away from here.
I just hope my new love is
Truly sincere
oh oh ohhh-woahhh
(Chorus)
And I'm doin' just fine
Don't you worry about me.
I'll find happiness in time
I'll keep on waiting patiently.
-brief pause-
(Verse 3)
Here I thought
Time would heal all wounds
I never guessed
You'd move on so soon
Take this time
To start fresh and new
And I'll have my chance to
Forget you
oh oh ohhh-woahhh
(Chorus)
And I'm doin' just fine
Don't you worry about me.
I'll find happiness in time
I'll keep on waiting patiently.
