To A Friend

Did you ever love someone and know they didn’t
Care?
Did you ever feel like crying and know you’d get
Nowhere?
Did you look into their eyes and say a little prayer?
Or did you look into their heart and wished you
Were there?
Did you ever see them dancing with the light’s
Way down low?
Did you ever say I love you
And never let them know?
If you fall in love my friend you'd find it doesn’t
Pay.
It only causes heartache.
That happens every day.
Do you ever wonder if it’s true?
One day you're happy,
And the next you'll find you're blue.
And when this starts you'll know why
And wonder day and night reminding yourself
Going to lose them no matter how hard you
Fight.
Love is fine, but the price you pay is high.
If I could choose between love and death,
I think I rather die.
And so my friend don't fall in love,
You'll hurt before you're through
You see my friend I ought to know
Because I fell in love with you . . .
