Who needs friends who never show
I'll tell you what you wanna know
I could have saved a broken heart
If I'd found out long ago

I'm just thinking about
All those lonely nights
When I waited for your call, ooh, ooh
'Til I found out
All my friends were right, ooh, ooh
I didn't know you at all

I heard a rumour
(I heard a rumour)
They say you got a broken heart
I heard, I heard a rumour
(Ooh, ooh, yes I did, boy)
I heard a rumour, ooh

Now it seems they're telling me
You've changed your wicked ways
But should I give you a second chance
Baby, I'm too afraid

So you realize what hurt you made
And the love you threw away
How can I forgive or soon forget
It's never gonna be the same

I heard a rumour
(I heard a rumour)
They say you got a broken heart
I heard, I heard a rumour
(Ooh, ooh, yes I did, boy)
I heard a rumour, ooh

I heard a rumour
(I heard a rumour)
They say you got a broken heart
I heard, I heard a rumour
(Ooh, ooh, yes I did, boy)
I heard a rumour, ooh
