You say that you miss him
I can tell by the way you kiss him
Get yourself together
And you'll be alright
You say that you love him
Now he's gone so please forget him
Get yourself together
And you'll be alright
I'm just like you so take my lead
You see me as a friend but
I'm a friend in need

Get yourself together
And you'll be alright

So if you feel that you need me
I'm here beside you
Can't you see me?
Get yourself together
And you'll be alright

You're gonna be alright
Get yourself together, you're gonna be alright
