On the floor, the people dance around
|
Moving close together
|
But there all alone in the corner
|
There's the girl I once knew
|
Who broke me in two.
|
So won't you please play a song
|
A sentimental song
|
For my sentimental friend over there.
|
|
We've been so long apart
|
Make it go right to the heart
|
Of my sentimental friend over there.
|
Bring the tears to her eyes
|
Help to make her realize
|
The love we had was just beyond compare.
|
Then if the time is right
|
Maybe I'll hold her tight
|
My sentimental friend over there.
|
|
I recall the way she used to feel
|
When we heard a sad song
|
The teardrops would fall
|
And she'd hold me
|
And tell me,
|
She'd be forever with me.
|
So won't you please play a song
|
A sentimental song
|
For my sentimental friend over there.
|
|
We've been so long apart
|
Make it go right to the heart
|
Of my sentimental friend over there.
|
Bring the tears to her eyes
|
Help to make her realize
|
The love we had was just beyond compare.
|
Then if the time is right
|
Maybe I'll hold her tight
|
My sentimental friend over there.
|
|
So won't you please play a song
|

|
For my sentimental friend over there.

|
|
so won't you please play a song

A sentimental song
