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
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
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
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
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
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?
We've been so long apart, make it go right to the heart
Of my sentimental friend over there
And 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
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
And 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
