I know you need a friend
Someone you can talk to
Who will understand what you're going through
When it comes to love
There's no easy answer
Only you can say what you're gonna do
I heard you on the phone
You took his number
Said you were alone and you'd call him soon
Isn't he the guy
The guy who left you crying
Isn't he the one who made you blue Woo.....
When you remember those nights in his arms
You know you gotta make up your mind
Are you gonna stay with the one who loves you
Or are you going back to the one you love
Someone's gonna cry when they know they lost you
Someone's gonna thank the stars above
What you gonna say when he comes over
There's no easy way to see this through
All the broken dreams
All the disappointments
Oh girl what you gonna do
Your heart keeps saying it's just not fair
But still you gotta make up your mind
Are you gonna stay with the one who loves you
Or are you going back to the one you love
Someone's gonna cry when they know they lost you
Someone's gonna thank the stars above

People say a picture can say a thousand words. I say a good song can speak to millions of hearts. And this song is it!!
Some of my friends have been struggling with relationships recently. It's so difficult for me to tell them what to do. And the thing is I'm not supposed to tell them what to do. If they end up with living together happily ever after, I don't think they will appreciate my help. (BTW, who can guarantee the love stories in the real life will have the same happy-ending in the fairy tales?) If there's still no hope between them at the end, I may be the one who gets all the blame. "To love or not to love?" is always a thorny question for everyone no matter how old you are or whether you're married or not!
It saddens me to see my friends suffering but I'm also wondering--Can we live simply by love? Love changes with time because passion will diminish eventually and commitments will increase, no matter what! Of course one can choose to indulge in keeping seeking excitement and passion and forget all the commitments sometimes. But we all get old some day, don't we? Who will be the one that is willing to be with us when we're no more young and good-looking? For me, even though love is a starting point, it takes something more than love to keep a relationship going. Something that is not always romantic and not always a turn-on. It may sound boring but it's true! Life is full of choices. Once your decison is made, there's always a consequence to what you do.
