One of Us Lyrics by Björn Ulvaeus & Benny Andersson

Mamma Mia!: Original Cast Recording

1999

[DONNA]
They passed me by
All of those great romances
Because of your
Robbing me
Of my rightful chances
My picture clear
Everything seemed so easy
But the you dealt me the blow
One of us had to go
How you hurt me
I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself
Feeling stupid
Feeling small
Wishing you had
Never left at all
Never left at all
[SAM]
Donna. What's the rush?
[DONNA]
The wedding
[SAM]
Oh yeah, about this wedding, why didn't you tell me it was Sophie getting married
[DONNA]
That is absolutely none of your business
[SAM]
And what's this Sky guy like?
Is he good enough for her?
[DONNA]
And that is none of your business either
[SAM]
Alright, be a bloody martyr, listen, I've got kids, I know it's hard for you doing it on your own
[DONNA]
Don't bloody patronise me
I love doing it on my own - every morning I wake up and thank Christ I haven't got some middle-aged menopausal man to bother me - I'm free, I'm single and it's great!
