I felt I couldn't go on no more   Phone rang to a voice I'd heard before   A voice that told me what I'd love to hear   Ain't it funny how things could be so wrong   Deep down inside you know it won't take long   It only takes a word to make you smile   Just one more time and I'll be alright   Just one more time from you   Let me hear it one more time and I'll be alright   Just one more time from you   Let me hear it   She came to me with a broken heart   A little confused it could be so hard   Said she needed me to calm her down   So I told her everything would be alright   And it's okay to be alone sometimes   If that don't work you've always got your friends   Let me hear it again   Words from a friend   Won't you tell me what I want to hear   I came to her with a broken heart   A little confused it can be so hard   I said baby won't you please calm me down   She told me everything would be okay   People could be so cold these days   Ya gotta look at things another way
