You know I lost a friend
The other day
She said she'd like to stay,
But she's on her way
And I can't believe
That she's leaving me
And it's been so long goin' on
Just can't be
Well it's happened before,
Well I never dreamed
It could happen with her,
All the same old scenes
And it can't be true
What's she trying to do
Be the death of me,
Can't you see
Just can't be
What went wrong, well you know
I don't understand
But it's done and you know
I've done all I can
So I'll say goodbye
To these tears I've cried
I will carry on, get along
I won't ask why
So I'll say goodbye
To these tears I've cried
I will carry on, get along
I won't ask why
