[Chorus]
Somebody up there help me
I don't wanna do my best friend wrong, help me
Somebody help me
[Verse 1]
I was gazing out my window, saw my best friend's boyfriend
He was leanin' on my doorbell, so I let him in
Then he reached out for my hand
He said, "I wanna be your man"
I cried, "Mercy"
My knees they started shakin'
When he looked at me that way
All I could do was pray
[Chorus]
Somebody up there help me
Refuse the love I've wanted so long, oh
Somebody up there help me
I don't wanna do my best friend wrong, help me
Somebody help me
[Verse 2]
Temptation's got me by the hand
And it won't let me go
If I let him steal my kisses
I just might lose control
(If I hurt my best friend)
Oh, I could get hurt in the end
Oh, mercy
I want to show my loyalty
But it's hard when her boyfriend looks so good to me
[Chorus]
Somebody up there help me (Oh, somebody, someone)
I don't wanna do my best friend wrong (no), help me
Somebody help me
[Bridge]
Somebody help (Can you hear me?)
Help me somebody, help, help me (Please, help)
Oh, oh
[Outro]
Somebody up there help me (Ooh)
Refuse the love I've wanted so long
(Help me somebody, oh help me somebody)
Ooh, help me
Somebody up there help me (Help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me)
I don't wanna do my best friend wrong, help me
Help me, help me (Oh oh, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me)
Somebody up there help me
Refuse the love I've wanted so long
Somebody up there help me
