the one you love

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 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 disappointment
oh girl, what you gonna do

your heart keeps saying, "it's just not fair"
but still you 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
