Take It From Me

She's your girl, ain't that right? But you're gone in the middle of the night And that girl, she hangs on It ain't cool the way you string her along I hear talk, it's on the street It's a dead end with the ladies you meet It's a shame the way you start (it's a shame) Leavin' footprints on an innocent heart You're gonna need somebody you can lean on (need somebody) You're gonna need somebody to love It's a cold day when you hear her say I'm finally free And it's a cruel world when you lose that girl Take it from me, you oughta take it from me It's so good what you got (so good) Why can't you see that she's takin' a lot You don't call, why don't you care? (Why don't you care?) That she's a fool for ya, and you're keepin' her there (oh, yeah) You're gonna need somebody to rely on (need somebody) You're gonna need somebody to love It's a cold day when you hear her say I'm finally free And it's a cruel world when you lose that girl Take it from me (oh, take it from me) When it's too late And the hands of faith, they are turning the key (oh, turning, turning, turning) You will love again and you'll remember when Take it from me, take it from me No question, I'm your best friend Wake up or you're never gonna live it down She needs you, wants to please you You think that she's always gonna be around It's a cold day when you hear her say I'm finally free Oh, it's a cruel world when you lose that girl (that's a cruel world) Take it from me When it's too late And the hands of faith they are turning the key (oh, turning, turning, turning) Did you know you will love again, and you'll remember when?
