What am I gonna tell our friends

What am I gonna tell our friends (Behind the song)

When two people decide to go their separate ways sometimes they don’t realize all the connections that are involved, especially if they had a complex of social connections. How do you handle it , what do you tell your friends. This is where it comes down to the real nitty gritty of who’s the blame and who can give an honest and true evaluation of what really happened.  “ The heart is more treacherous than anything else and is desperate. Who can know it?” states Jeremiah 17:9 and that makes it difficult to be unbiased. It is hard to face up to our personal flaws and the tendency is to generally find the blame in the other. But what do we tell our friends. Do we face the fact that we had a major share in contributing to this parting. Like the text above says of the heart, “Who can know it?” These are the thoughts behind the song , “What am I gonna to tell our friends”

LYRICS

WHAT AM I GONNA TELL OUR FRIENDS

WHAT AM I GONNA TELL OUR FRIENDS
THEIR ASKING ME ABOUT YOU
THEIR SUSPECTING YOU HAVE GONE
LIKE I SAID YOU D ALWAYS DO
AND WHAT IS EXPECTED OF ME,

NOW THAT I M ALONE WITHOUT YOU
I M EXPECTED TO GO ON
ON AND ON

BUT WHAT AM I GONNA TELL OUR FRIENDS
AS I LOOK INTO THEIR FAÇES
DO I TELL THEM I WAS WRONGED
BY A LOVER WHO DIDN T CARE
OR DO I FACE THE FACT
THAT I VE GOTTA TAKE THE BLAME
WAS I RIGHT , WAS I WRONG
IT GOES ON AND ON

INTERLUDE

I’VE GOT.

TO BE RIGHT
SHE S GOT TO BE WRONG
BUT A FOOL NEVER LEARNS
I M STANDING PROUD
BUT OH HOW IT BURNS
(REPEAT FIRST LINES AND FADE)
