[Verse 1]

I figured all the years we shared were proof enough

To extend my hand and help you

I know that getting started can be rough

Enthused smile, you seemed grateful

I felt real good about myself

That's until the day you showed me

You don't need anybody else

[Chorus]

Why'd you have to go

And make me say these things about you?

Why'd you have to turn around

After all that we've been through?

[Verse 2]

I figured all the memories were proof enough

To maybe open your eyes

From the people you think hold your trust

Do you ever smile and find it shameful

'Cause you don't know who you are?

I am glad you never told me...

You needed anybody else

[Chorus]

Why'd you have to go

And make me say these things about you?

Why'd you have to turn around

After all that we've been through?

[Verse 3]

What will you do

When there's no one to fall back on?

I won't be there

I've learned my lesson

What will you do when there's no friends to fall back on?

Because they've all been stepped on

[Chorus]

Why'd you have to go

And make me say these things about you?

Why'd you have to turn around

After all that we've been through?

After all that we've been through?

Why'd you have to go

Why'd you have to turn around

After all that we've been through?

[Outro]

What will you do

When there's no one to fall back on?
