If there should come a day a new love comes my way.
I count on you to really be a friend.
Remind me, if my heart starts taking flight,
of the night it had to end.

It could be I?ll forget the sorrow and regret
and find myself in love again some day.
Remind me, if I?m starry eyed, of what it felt like deep inside
on the night he walked away.

Be a friend and remind me like a good fired always does.
If I?ve put the hurt behind me, please remind me
how destroyed I was.
I doubt I?ll have a lapse but, then again, perhaps
it could be someone new will catch my eye.

Well, should the past become a blue, remind me
what my feeling were on the night he said goodbye.
Be a friend and remind me how it all can fall apart.
Don?t allow the stars to blind me.
Please remind me love can break your heart.

If I get swept away don?t hesitate to say
the kind of things a friend should tell a friend.
Speak openly and honestly, and if need be
point to me how my heart has yet to mend?
since the night It had to end.
