Why do you both fall silent when I enter the room? Hannah is my oldest and very best friend! I know you ‘ve been seeing her behind my back So please stop treating me like a fool People keep giving me little smiles Even my parents are acting strangely Right now I want to pack my bags and leave I can’t stand your deception any longer Neil, I need you to tell me the truth NOW ... Good grief! How did you keep THAT a secret So ... we’re getting married in the morning!
