You tried to fit into the arms where I belong 
 You moved right in behind my back 
 Everyone knows friends don't do that 
  
 I thought you were somebody I could trust 
 You always said you were happy for us 
 How could you go and break my heart? 
 When you knew all along he was mine from the start 
  
 He is everything to me 
 And you know we're meant to be 
 He's my baby 
 Don't mess with my love 
 Take everything I own 
 Ooh just leave that boy alone 
 He's my baby 
 Don't mess with my 
 Mess with my love 
 Don't mess with my love 
  
 You came right over and looked in my eyes 
 You said the stories were rumors and lies 
 And I wish I could believe in you 
 But I'm sorry to say he told me the truth 
  
 He is everything to me 
 And you know we're meant to be 
 He's my baby 
 Don't mess with my love 
 Take everything I own 
 Ooh just leave that boy alone 
 He's my baby 
 Don't mess with my 
 Mess with my love 
 Don't mess with my love 
  
 BRIDGE 
 Friends don't do what you do 
 There's no excuse 
 I'm so confused 
 I thought you cared about me 
 But now I see 
 All you care about is you 
  
 He is everything to me 
 And you know we're meant to be 
 He's my baby 
 Don't mess with my love 
 Take everything I own 
 Ooh just leave that boy alone 
 He's my baby 
 Don't mess with my 
 Mess with my love 
 Don't mess with my love
