Iand'd like you to meet the girl they call next door
youand'll know her and'cause youand've seen her face before
he left you and he broke your heart in two
you donand't know if youand'll ever make it through
He had to go leave you all alone
i promise youand're much better on your own
take it from me and'cause iand've been there
i once had a man who didnand't care
Promised myself i would never love again
iand've been hurt, iand've been blind, and thatand's the end
i have fought, i have cried, i have bled
for the love that never has been said
(chorus)
heand'll love you, he wonand't love you
but youand've got to 'cause youand're stronger than you were before
youand'll be there, he wonand't be there
but youand've been there and youand're stronger than you were before
Take a minute, make a new plan
take a while before a new man
find the one that i adore
but better yet, the one who loves me more
Girl to girl, i know weand've all been there
in the mirror i know that weand've all stared
to find a place thatand's within our hearts
never let your soul and spirit part
(chorus)
heand'll love you, he wonand't love you
but youand've got to 'cause youand're stronger than you were before
youand'll be there, he wonand't be there
but youand've been there and youand're stronger than you were before
Girl i know youand'll feel better if you cried
but you will be stronger if you look inside
love doesnand't always mean that youand'll see eye to eye
but great love will always help you learn to fly
you can hold him close and let him kiss you
but just not too tight, heand's gotta miss you
make a love that you know your heart will preserve
live a life that all of us deserve
and he will
( repeat chorus)
