written by Babyface, Sid Johnson (1986)



My friends tell me

That he's been cheating on you

And that he treats you unkindly

He's using you

My friends tell me

That he keeps messing around

And that your love is so blinded

You think that it's it cool



Well, he never sends you roses

He never kisses you goodnight

He never thinks about your anniversary

He says he don't have time





Well, I might be wrong to think

A little bit confused

That a girl like you is too beautiful

For a guy like him to use



What ever happened to chivalry

What ever happened to love and true honesty

What ever happened to chivalry

What ever happened to love and true honesty



My friends tell me

That he's been bragging about

All of the girls that he's doing

All over town

My friends tell me

He's putting you down

And you're so in love you can't tell

He is turning you out



Well, he never sends love letters

He never takes you out at night

He never wines and dines your heart

He says he don't have time





Well, I might be wrong to think

A little bit confused

That a girl like you is too beautiful

For a guy like him to use
