She Was a Friend of Mine

Ooh yeah

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

I trusted her with him

That's where the story begins

We talked of boys and men

They all came second then

I made a sacrifice

And trusted all her advice

There was no need to fight

Things were so simple then

One by one she broke her promises

I guess she thought that she could take my man

I just gotta let her know

His love is for me, and that's the way the story goes

She was a friend of mine

Or so I thought at the time

How could I be so blind to trust her with my man

She fooled me with her eyes

And hid behind a disguise

I've read between the lines and now I understand

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

She said she'd make it right

And talk to him late at night

Told me to take it slow

But little did I know

She had a master plan

I had my head in the sand

But now it's plain to see

She chose him over me

Every day she's smiling in my face

But every night she's trying to take my place

She said she'd always be right there for me

But now I can see the kind of help I just don't need

She was a friend of mine

Or so I thought at the time

How could I be so blind to trust her with my man (to trust her with my man)

She fooled me with her eyes

And hid behind a disguise

I've read between the lines and now I understand (and now I understand)

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

(And now I understand)

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

(And now I understand)

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

(She was a friend of mine)

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

(How could I be so blind)

Never thought friends could be so cruel

I never thought you could break all the rules

Now it's you who looks like a fool

Cos what goes around, comes around

Ooh-yeah

She was a friend of mine (she was a friend of mine)

Or so I thought at the time

How could I be so blind to trust her with my man (to trust her with my man)

She fooled me with her eyes

And hid behind a disguise

I've read between the lines and now I understand (and now I understand)

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

(Yeah-yeah-eh)

Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

She was a friend of mine (she was a friend of mine)

Or so I thought at the time

How could I be so blind to trust her with my man

She fooled me with her eyes (fooled me with her eyes)

And hid behind a disguise

I've read between the lines and now I understand (now I understand)

And now I understand

Now I understand

And now I understand
