Early one morning while you were asleep

I received a letter, but there was no addressee

So I paid it no mind, in fact, I wanted to send it back

But something that I was feeling said open it

It said "Dear Reader, once close friend of mine
Hope that this letter finds you in time

Cos your love is ending

And my life's just beginning

With a woman that I know you hold dear to you"

And it made me wanna say



I don't ever wanna see you again (I don't, I don't)

But I stuck by you till the end

And my conscience is clear

And I can move on from here

But I wish I could say the same for you baby

(Yeah yeah yeah)

I don't ever wanna see you again (no)

Tell me why did it have to be my best friend

(Why did it have to be)

That you were messing round with

I didn't wanna notice it

I was true to my love for you-ou



It took me a minute to wake up and see

What the love of my life was doing to me

I wanted to lay down and die

Cos my pride wouldn't let me cry

Some how I knew I had to get over it

He said he couldn't understand until he felt your touch

Now he can see why I love you so much

And that's so unfair

I never thought I'd have to share

Your love that I thought was given to only me

And that's why



I don't ever wanna see you again (I don't wanna see)

But I stuck by you till the end

And my conscience is clear (clear)

And I can move on from here

But I wish I could say the same for you baby (ooh)

I don't ever wanna see you again

Tell me why did it have to be my best friend

(You could of picked anybody)

That you were messing round with

I didn't wanna notice it

I was true to my love for you

(I was so true to my love for you)



And you say you loved me

(And you said you loved me baby)

Love must of been blind

Cos I sure didn't see this one coming

I once was blind but now I see

My best friend huh

They say keep the ones you love close

And your enemies even closer

But I can't win or lose you

(You are the closest thing to me baby)

Cos the one I thought was a friend to me

Ended up being my true enemy

Do we know the real pain you go through

Listen to me baby

I gave you everything, my love and my ring

And you, why you leading me

And I don't wanna see you again



I don't ever wanna see you again (I don't wanna see)

But I stuck by you till the end

And my conscience is clear (clear)

And I can move on from here

But I wish I could say the same for you baby (ooh)

I don't ever wanna see you again

Tell me why did it have to be my best friend

(You could of picked anybody)

That you were messing round with

I didn't wanna notice it

I was true to my love for you

(I was so true to my love for you)
