[Intro]
Whoa, yeah
Oooh

[Verse 1]
Baby, please, you don’t have to explain the reasons
This is me, I know your mind can change like the seasons
Go your way, I know the world is calling your name, boy
It’s okay, 'cause what we got, it ain’t gonna change, boy

[Pre-Chorus]
As long as we’ve been together
You’ve always been the one
Nobody knows you better
When all is said and done

[Chorus]
When your friends start to trip and you're losing your grip
And you can't find your way back home
When your world falls apart and you're lost in the dark
And you know that you're all alone
When you just can't deal and you need something real
Someone who'll always come through
Who ya gonna run to? Who ya gonna run to?

[Verse 2]
You and me, we go back to jump rope in grade school
Memories when you were trying too hard to play cool
I don't mind, I know that you've gotta go to your changes
Take your time, sometimes the heart rearranges

[Pre-Chorus]
As long as we’ve been together
You’ve always been the one
Nobody knows you better
When all is said and done

[Chorus]
When your friends start to trip and you're losing your grip
And you can't find your way back home
(Can't find your way back home)
When your world falls apart and you're lost in the dark
And you know that you're all alone (You're all alone)
When you just can't deal and you need something real
Someone who'll always come through
Who ya gonna run to? (Who ya gonna run to?)
Who ya gonna run to? (Who ya gonna run to?)

[Bridge]
There ain't nobody who can ever understand like I do (I do)
So when you realize you need the one you said goodbye to
Look over your shoulder, boy, and you know who'll be there
You know I'm gonna be right there, right there

[Chorus]
When your friends start to trip and you're losing your grip
And you can't find your way back home
When your world falls apart and you're lost in the dark
And you know that you're all alone
When you just can't deal and you need something real
Someone who'll always come through
Who ya gonna run to? Who ya gonna run to?
When there's nobody else in the world you can put your trust in
Who ya gonna run to?
And you find all the haters around ya that don't mean nothing
Who ya gonna run to?
Who ya gonna run to?

Rihanna

A true pop icon, Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty is a singer, actress, and businesswoman from Saint Michael, Barbados. She was first discovered by American record producer Evan Rogers in 2003 and later signed a contract to Def Jam Recordings in 2004, after auditioning for its then-president, JAY-Z.

The following year, in 2005, she released her debut album Music of the Sun and its follow-up, A Girl Like Me, in 2006. Both albums did well commercially, but it wasn’t until the release of her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, in 2007 that poised Rihanna as an international pop star. It became her first album to receive a Grammy nomination (seven to be exact) and features one of her biggest hits, “Umbrella.”

Moving onto 2009, Rihanna released her fourth studio album, Rated R. It featured a darker and more atmospheric tone from her previous albums. She released her fifth studio album, Loud, the next year in 2010. It marked her return to making dance-pop records. That summer, she featured on Eminem’s smash hit, “Love the Way You Lie” and is one of her most popular features of all time.
