You put on a dress and you let him take you out
He opens the door, pulls the chair before you sit down
He'll hold and protect ya, look at you making your grandmother proud
And I'm just a girl from the past you don't talk about

Babe, I'm happy for you, really
Not asking you to miss me
Just please don't erase me

Did you forget all our nights on the east side?
When you told me how I made you feel
Just 'cause you found you could fall for a good guy
You can't tell me that wasn't real

He makes you smile like I did, that's okay
We said goodbye, but don't you dare call me a phase
I hope you remember back when you were mine
That we were more than a lifestyle

Lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle
That we were more than a lifestyle
Lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle
That we were more than a lifestyle

Back then, you told me that I was your everything
And you even introduced me to your family
Told me your fears and you gave me a ring
Now I'm a dirty little secret you keep

I just don't understand why you're rewriting history

Tell your friends that I made you gay
Hate to break it, you were born that way

Did you forget all our nights on the east side?
When you told me how I made you feel
Just 'cause you found you could fall for a good guy
You can't tell me that wasn't real

He makes you smile like I did, that's okay
We said goodbye, but don't you dare call me a phase
I hope you remember back when you were mine
That we were more than a lifestyle

Lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle (Tell your friends that I made you gay)
That we were more than a lifestyle
Lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle (Hate to break it, you were born that—)
That we were more than a lifestyle
