the whole town's laughing at me

the whole town's laughing at me

yeah

i had your love right here

in the palm of my hands

and i lost it and i lost it

had a love so new

one a man feel

and i lost it and i lost it

maybe if i had spent more time with you

maybe then

maybe then you'd still be mine

oh and only if i had been just a little more kind to you

there'd be no need

for this man to be cryin'

the whole town's laughing at me

silly fool

how'd you lose such a good friend?

had my dream so near

i could reach out and touch it

and i lost it and i lost it

had a world complete

it was

oh

so sweet

and i lost it and i lost it

maybe if i had spent just a little more time with you

maybe then

maybe then you still be mine

oh and only if i had been just a little more kind to you

there'd be no need

for this man to be cryin'

the whole town's laughing at me

silly fool

how'd you lose such a good friend? oh

maybe if i had spent more time with you

maybe then

maybe then you still be mine

maybe i think about it

and only if i had been just a little more kind to you

there'd be no need

for this man to be cryin'

the whole town's laughing at me

silly fool

how'd you lose such a good friend?

the whole town's laughing at me

silly fool

how'd you lose such a good friend?

the whole town's laughing at me

silly fool

how'd you lose such a good friend?
