Lyrics I'm Asking for a Friend - Hank Snow

I'm Asking for a Friend

Darling I would like to tell you
About a friend I know
Who has cheated on his sweetheart
Although he really loves her so
He’d like to know if she’d forgive him
Or if she’d forgive in time
Of course it’s not for me I’m asking
I’m asking for a friend of mine
He would like to tell his sweetheart
About the whole affair
He’d like to take it from his conscience
His guilt is more than he can bear
So I’d like to know what you’d do
If I were the guilty one
Would your love for me be endless
Or would you forgive in time
Of course it’s not for me I’m asking
I’m asking for a friend of mine
