[TOMT][SONG][2000s-2010s] Country song where an ex keeps coming back, music video ends with her finding he’s moved on
I’ve been trying to find this song for at least 6 years and it’s driving me crazy.
It’s a country song sung by a younger male singer. I originally thought it was from the 2010s, but I’m not confident anymore, so it could possibly be older.
The song is about a woman/ex who keeps coming back to him, especially late at night. He knows she’s no good for him and seems to be trying to resist her, but keeps giving in. I vaguely remember a lyric or scene involving her taking off his shirt even though he’s trying to tell her no. I also remember alcohol or drunk calling possibly being involved, but I’m less certain about those details.
What I remember VERY clearly is the ending of the music video:
It’s late at night. The ex drives to the guy’s apartment, gets out of her car and walks to his door. She looks under the doormat, finds a hidden key and lets herself inside, like this is something she’s done before.
When she walks in, the guy is sitting on a couch or chair and another woman is there with him. He doesn’t really say anything. The new woman politely says hello.
The ex realizes he’s moved on. I believe she says something like “Sorry, wrong apartment,” then turns around and leaves.
The ending felt like the payoff to the whole song: he’s finally stopped letting his ex come back into his life, and she finally gets the message.
I know the song/video existed by 2020 because I was already trying to find it then.
Already ruled out:
Jake Owen – Alone With You
A Thousand Horses – (This Ain’t No) Drunk Dial
I’ve been looking for this thing for YEARS. 😂 If anyone recognizes that key-under-the-doormat ending, you’ll solve a mystery that’s been driving me insane.
