Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
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 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 But now he's back in my arms again Right by my side I got him back in my arms again So satisfied 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 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 'Cause he's back in my arms again Right by my side I've got him back in my arms again So satisfied 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 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 I got him back in my arms again Right by my side I got him back in my arms again So satisfied I'm satisfied So satisfied I'm satisfied, I'm satisfied So satisfied
