I stood up for you when you married
I thought you were one lucky guy
You had the world in your pocket
She had that look of love in her eye

You called me at one in the morning
To tell me what you're going through
It's not workin' out like you wanted
I'm not the one to be telling this to

'Cause brother when you say she's not all that you dreamed of
I'll say you're dreaming too much
'Cause I know she's more than some damn fool deserves
I know she's somebody's love, yes, I know she's somebody's love

I've watched her raisin' your children
She was there when the going got tough
Just when she needed your loving
You strung her along on just barely enough

So brother, when you say she's not all that you dreamed of
I'll say you're dreaming too much
'Cause I know she's more than some damn fool deserves
I know she's somebody's love

And if I had your luck
This time you'd be gone, she'd be mine
All of my friends would say
There goes that lucky guy

Brother, when you say she's not all that you dreamed of
I'll say you're dreaming too much
'Cause I know she's more than some damn fool deserves
I know she's somebody's love

Yes, I know she's somebody's love
Oh, I know she's somebody's love
