She Was a Friend of Mine

[Intro]
Ooh yeah
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-eh

[Verse 1]
I trusted her with him
That's where the story begins
We talked of boys and men
They all came second then

[Verse 2]
I made a sacrifice
And trusted all her advice
There was no need to fight
Things were so simple then

[Pre Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
She had a master plan
I had my head in the sand
But now it's plain to see
She chose him over me

[Pre Chorus 2]
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

[Chorus]
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)

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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)

[Outro]
And now I understand
Now I understand
And now I understand
