My Sentimental Friend - Herman's Hermits

On the floor, the people dancing round

Moving close together

But there over low 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 realise

The love we had was just beyond compare

And 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 realise

The love we had was just beyond compare.

And 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 realise

The love we had was just beyond compare.

And 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
