He'll teach you to wait by the phone And then won't call Throw your life in a turmoil And when you fall Just when you need him most He won't see you Don't let him Don't let him Don't let him get you down When your dreams get shattered Down where nothing matters But if he won't have you You can bet your life Bet your life It's not the end And if he can't see What a friend you are That's his loss It's not the end Don't let him Don't let him Don't let him get you down Watch his lips while he speaks And read his eyes It's a figure of speech So don't be surprised When he talks of love But his deeds can break you Don't let him Don't let him Don't let him get you down
