Lyrics for Nobody Told Me

I ran into an old friend today We found what old friends find to say And then he mentioned you I guess he thought I knew But no one had told me you were lovers Nobody told me that love could work this way Nobody told me that love could hurt this way It never crossed my mind that you'd find someone new Nobody told me 'til he told me that he's in love with you I guess I won't be sleeping tonight The memories are just too clear to fight I know that it was me who wanted to be free So, why is it now I feel so lonely? Nobody told me that love could work this way Nobody told me that love could hurt this way It never crossed my mind that you'd find someone new Nobody told me 'til he told me that he's in love with you Old lovers are like cold winters They can both cut you to the bone Nobody tells you, nobody warns you You've got to find out on your own Nobody told me that love could work this way Nobody told me that love could hurt this way It never crossed my mind that you'd find someone new Nobody told me 'til he told me that he's in love with you How I wish that I could tell you I'm still in love with you
