[Verse 1]
Who needs friends who never show?
I'll tell you what you wanna know
I could have saved a broken heart
If I'd found out long ago
I'm just thinking about those lonely nights
When I waited on your call
Till I found out my friends were right
I didn't know you at all
[Chorus]
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes, I did, boy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Verse 2]
Now it seems they're telling me
You've changed your wicked ways
But should I give you a second chance?
Baby, I'm too afraid
So you realise what hurt you made
And the love you threw away
How can I forgive or soon forget?
It's never gonna be the same
[Chorus]
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes, I did, boy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes, I did, boy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Whoo!
[Bridge]
I'm just thinking about those lonely nights (I'm just thinking about when I waited)
When I waited on your call
Till I found out all my friends were right (Till I found out, ooh)
I didn't know you at all
[Chorus]
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes, I did, boy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes, I did, boy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes, I did, boy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I heard a rumour (Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you've got a broken heart (I heard it)
