She used to be my only enemy
And never let me be free
Catching me in places
That I knew I shouldn't be
Every other day I crossed the line
I didn't mean to be so bad
I never thought you would
Become the friend I never had
Bridge:
Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love
Refrain:
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
My friend
I didn't want to hear it then
But I'm not ashamed to say it now
Every little thing you
Said and did was right for me
I had a lot of time to think about
About the way I used to be
Never had a sense of my responsibility
Bridge
Refrain
But now I'm sure I know why
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes
All I can give you is love
Refrain
Say you'll be there
Say you'll be there
I'm giving you everything
All that joy can bring this I swear
Last time that we had this conversation
I decided we should be friends, yeah
But now we're going round in circles
Tell me will this deja vu never end
Now you tell me that you've fallen in love
Well I never ever thought that would be
This time you gotta take it easy
Throwing far too much emotions at me
But any fool can see they're falling
I gotta make you understand
Refrain:
I'm giving you everything
All that joy can bring this I swear
And all that I want from you
Is a promise you will be there
Say you will be there
Say you will be there
Won't you sing it with me
If you put two and two together
You will see what our friendship is for
If you can't work this equation
Then I guess I'll have to show you the door
There is no need to say you love me
It would be better left unsaid
Refrain
Yeah, I want you
Any fool can see they're falling
I gotta make you understand
I'll give you everything on this I swear
Just promise you'll always be there
Refrain
