Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You were lonely and you needed a friend

And he was there at the right time, with the right smile

Just a shoulder to lean on

Someone to tell you it'll all work out all right

[Verse 2]

Don't let him steal your heart away

No, don't let him steal your heart away

[Verse 3]

Don't let him steal your heart away

No, don't let him steal your heart away

[Verse 4]

You can look at him the way you did me

And hold him close, say you're never letting go

But any fool can see you're fooling yourself

But you ain't fooling me

[Verse 5]

So don't let him steal your heart away

No, don't let him steal your heart away, no

[Verse 6]

And don't pack my suitcase, I'll be back

And don't take my pictures off of the wall

Oh, did you hear me?

Don't let him change a thing 'cause I'll be back

Just tell him to pack his things and get out of your life

And just give me one more chance

I'll show you I'm right, I'm right

[Verse 7]

'Cause I've been thinking and I know it was me

Leaving you lonely, but hoping you could be strong

But can you look at me straight?

Tell me, what else can I do but say I was wrong?

[Verse 8]

So don't let him steal your heart away

No, don't let him steal your heart away

[Verse 9]

Well, he's gonna try to make it work for you

And make you think your whole life's been leading to this

But whatever you do

Think about me, oh, and don't be fooled by his kiss

[Verse 10]

And don't let him steal your heart away

Please, don't let him steal your heart away

[Verse 11]

And don't pack my suitcase, I'll be back

And don't take my picture off of your wall

Did you hear me?

Don't let him change a thing 'cause I'll be back

Just tell him to pack his things and get out of your life

And just give me one more chance

I'll show you I'm right, you know I'm right

[Verse 12]

'Cause you were lonely and you needed a friend

And he was there at the right time, with the right smile

Just a shoulder to lean on

Someone to say don't worry, it'll all be all right

[Verse 13]

But he's no good for you

He'll make you think your whole life's been leading to this

And whatever you do

Think about me, oh, and don't be fooled by his kiss, oh, no, no, no

[Verse 14]

And don't let him steal your heart away, your heart away

And don't let him take it

Don't let him steal your heart away from me

Don't let him steal your heart away

Don't you let him take it
