Sentimental Friend Lyrics - Hermans Hermits

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. 

Oh 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 

A sentimental song 

For my sentimental friend over there...
