Talkin' in my sleep at night
(Out of my mind, out of my mind)
Wrote it down and read it out
(Too many times, too many times)
My love, he makes me feel like no body else
But my love, he doesn't love me
So I tell myself, I tell myself
One, don't pick up the phone
You know he's only calling
'cause he's drunk and alone
You'll have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed
You ain't getting over him
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
But he keeps pullin' me backwards
(Nowhere to turn, no way)
Now I'm standing back from it
I finally see the pattern
(I never learn, I never learn)
But my love, he doesn't loves me
So I tell myself, I tell myself
One, don't pick up the phone
You know he's only calling
'cause he's drunk and alone
You'll have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed
You ain't getting over him
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
One, don't pick up the phone
You know he's only calling
'cause he's drunk and alone
You'll have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed
You ain't getting over him
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
I've got new rules, I count 'em
(baby, you know I count 'em)
I've gotta tell them to myself
Don't let him in, don't let him in
Don't be his friend, don't be his friend
Don't let him in, don't let him in
Don't be his friend, don't be his friend
