I had a friend who gave me some advice She told me not to dump my problems onto other people She was right and she even had a nice way of saying it Now I see her in my dreams And I've learned to accept defeat And now my problems are gone since I quit carrying on I have nothing to say and it's better this way What would you have me do? Acting a fool can be pretty cool I hate to make you say it twice But the thing about advice is that I don't take it Now i see her in my dreams And I've learned to accept defeat And now my problems are gone since I quit carrying on I have nothing to say and it's better this way And now I see her in my dreams And I've learned to accept defeat And now my problems are gone since I quit carrying on I have nothing to say and it's better this way
