And I lost it and I lost it
I could reach out and touch it
The whole town's laughing at me
Silly fool, how'd you lose such a good friend? Oh
Had a world complete
There'd be no need, for this man to be cryin'
And I lost it and I lost it
The whole town's laughing at me
Maybe then, maybe then you still be mine
And only if I had been just a little more kind to you
In the palm of my hands
Maybe then, maybe then you'd still be mine
Had my dream so near
Had a love so new, one a man feel
Oh and only if I had been just a little more kind to you
Maybe I think about it
Silly fool, how'd you lose such a good friend?
The whole town's laughing at me
Maybe if I had spent more time with you
Maybe if I had spent just a little more time with you
And I lost it and I lost it
Silly fool, how'd you lose such a good friend?
And I lost it and I lost it
Maybe then, maybe then you still be mine
The whole town's laughing at me
It was, oh, so sweet
There'd be no need, for this man to be cryin'
There'd be no need, for this man to be cryin'
Yeah, I had your love right here
Oh and only if I had been just a little more kind to you
The whole town's laughing at me
Maybe if I had spent more time with you
Silly fool, how'd you lose such a good friend?
