So you love the way he holds you in the night

And you believe him when he tells you

Everything's alright

But I wonder if you know

The nature of his game

And all the others he's been lovin' just the same

Yeah



[Chorus:]

Sooner or later, somebody's gotta let you know

Sooner or later, somebody's gotta let you know

It might as well be me

It might as well be me

Yeah



Promises and plans inside your head

As you sit alone and think of things he said

But of all the love you tell me

You know you've been tastin'

It's much more than all your time

I know you've been wastin' babe, yeah



[Chorus]



I hate to be the one to bring you down

But everybody's talking, it's all over town

The same old story

They tell me that's the way it goes

I'm the first to tell you, now

And, baby you're the last to know, yeah



[Chorus]



Sooner or later, somebody's gotta let you know

Sooner or later, somebody's gotta let you know
