This love affair caused a lot of problems
My friends told me you should not get involved like that
Oh, I tried, yes, I promised I tried
But as soon as I don't think I do it all the same

Early in school they told me to dress well
But I just wanted to be like everybody else
One little step in the wrong direction
And you'll always be alone, so stay out of it

Ooh, I want you to know
Who'll be coming back after the snow
And God knows I want things to happen
But I don't want them to change
And this is what happened to a friend of mine

Yes, they said it shouldn't be a problem
As long as you don't get involved that way
But it's too late now, I've even told my best friend
He thought I'd say I was gay, oh, so self-centered

Ooh, I want you to know
Who'll be coming back after the snow
And God knows I want things to happen
But I don't want them to change
And this is what happened to a friend of mine

I know, I want you to know
Who'll be coming back after the snow
And God knows I want things to happen

I should know, I said, I should know, but ask again
Who'll be back after the snow
Don't let it happen to a friend of mine
And don't get yourself involved
Don't get yourself involved...
