| You say you want to know most everything about him
|
| But babe, what you’re saying is that you don’t want to doubt him
|
| If I told you all the truth you wouldn’t want to see him anymore
|
| But I’m his friend as well and there’s no way I can tell
|
| Tales that will make you unsure
|
| Don’t ask a friend; |
| don’t make me tell a lie
|
| Don’t ask a friend to be your alibi
|
| You know that I would like to help you patch it up again
|
| I’m your lonely hearts club friend
|
| Don’t ask a friend
|
| I’ve known him for so long to me he’s like a brother
|
| And if I needed help will I know there’d be no other
|
| But you’re as close to me as any friend that I have ever known
|
| I’m caught up in between his devil and your dream
|
| Please make your choice on your own
|
| Don’t ask a friend; |
| don’t make me tell a lie
|
| Don’t ask a friend to be your alibi
|
| You know that I would like to help you patch it up again
|
| I’m your lonely hearts club friend
|
| Don’t ask a friend |
