Ask me no questions
I'll tell you no lies
Come to me when you're down
I'll give you friendly adviceI'll be your avenue
Your trusting ear
Release your deepest secrets
I'll be sincereIt's an age old situation
There's nothing to fear
Whatever life throws at you
Your friend is here
Right by your sideWhen love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open armsHurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms, open armsI know what you're saying
I been there myself
Promises withstand
They left me for someone elseThen the tables turned
A lesson I've had to learn
I can't point my fingers 'cause girls
My fingers have been burnedIt's an age old situation
The message is clear
Whatever life throws at you
Your friend is here
Right by your sideWhen love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open armsHurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms, open armsIt's an age old situation
The message is clear
Whatever life throws at you
Your friend is here
Right by your sideWhen love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open armsHurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open armsWhen love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open armsHurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms, open armsI will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms
