I know you need a friend Someone you can talk to Who will understand what you're going through When it comes to love There's no easy answer Only you can say what you're gonna do I heard you on the phone You took his number Said you weren't alone, but you'd call him soon Isn't he the guy The guy who left you crying Isn't he the one who made you blue When you remember those nights in his arms You know you've gotta make up your mind Are you gonna stay with the one who loves you Or are you going back to the one you love Someone's gonna cry when they learn they've lost you Someone's gonna thank the stars above What you gonna say when he comes over There's no easy way to see this through All the broken dreams All the disappointments Oh girl, what you gonna do Your heart keeps saying it's just not fair But still you've gotta make up your mind Are you gonna stay with the one who loves you Or are you going back to the one you love Someone's gonna cry when they know they've lost you Someone's gonna thank the stars above
