Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All day long I hear my telephone ring
Friends calling giving their advice
From the boy I love
I should break away
'Cause heartaches he'll bring one day
[PreChorus]
I lost him once through friends' advice
But it's not gonna happen twice
'Cause all advice ever gotten me
Was many long and sleepless nights
[Chorus]
Ooh, but now he's back in my arms again
Right by my side
I got him back in my arms again
So satisfied
[Verse 2]
It's easy for friends to say, let him go
But I'm the one who needs him so
It's his love that makes me strong
Without him I can't go on
[PreChorus]
This time I'll live my life at ease
Being happy lovin' whom I please
And each time we make romance
I'll be thankful for a second chance
[Chorus]
Ooh, 'cause he's back in my arms again
Right by my side
I've got him back in my arms again
So satisfied
[Verse 3]
How can Mary tell me what to do
When she lost her love so true?
And Flo, she don't know
'Cause the boy she loves is a Romeo
[Verse 4]
I listened once to my friends' advice
But it's not gonna happen twice
'Cause all advice ever gotten me
Was many long and sleepless nights
[Chorus]
Ooh, I got him back in my arms again
Right by my side
I got him back in my arms again
So satisfied
[Outro]
Ooh, I'm satisfied, yeah
So satisfied
I'm satisfied
I'm satisfied
So satisfied
So satisfied
So satisfied
Satisfied
