Should we tell him? To let him go on trustin' isn't fair Should we tell him? Should we tell him that his girl doesn't care? I took my best girl dancin' Down to my best friend's mansion He met us at the door and said, "Glad you're here" Before the dance was over I saw him call her over Then he whispered, thought I didn't hear Should we tell him? To let him go on trustin' isn't fair Should we tell him? Should we tell him that his girl doesn't care? I left them there together Thought that I might feel better Down at this cafe where we used to go Some of my friends had gathered Just for some fun and laughter Then I heard two of them a talkin' low Should we tell him? To let him go on trustin' isn't fair Should we tell him? Should we tell him that his girl doesn't care?
