You're a girl that hates to see others happy
Unless you're happy too
So you've told the boy I love
A lot of things that ain't trueAnd its' wringing my heart
'Cause it's making us drift apart
So humbly I ask of you
To undo the wrong that you've donePlease go to him, tell him
Before he finds someone new
'Cause if I ever lose him
I don't know what I'll do'Cause he's all I got
Built my world around him
Since the day I found himGirl your selfishness causes unhappiness
But why make it hard for me?
Since you been unhappy in love
I guess misery loves companyFor once in your life
Consider another's feelings
Confess the truth
That you've been concealingPlease go to him, tell him
Before he finds someone new
'Cause if I ever lose him
I don't know what I'll do'Cause he's all I got
Built my world around him
Since the day found himI would gladly go to him
Instead of asking you
But there might be a shadow of a doubt
Your gossip might have been trueSo tearfully I ask of you
Please undo the wrong that you've done
'Cause without his love
I know, I know I can't go onPlease go to him, tell him
Before he finds someone new
'Cause if I ever lose him
I don't know what I'll do'Cause he's all I got
Built my world around him
Since the day found him
Can't bear to lose him
