A friend went away to another town   Where you set your watch to the sound of a pound   The first girl I loved soon followed it seemed   And when the second one went we were choosing teams   She got hers and I got mine   But somehow everybody seem to get on fine   But we were losing friends over love   Losing friends over love      When I went out just the other night   I said "put your hands up, cause were gonna fight"   But who am I to act so tough   When I learn so little   And forget so much   Now the heart will break when it hits the ground   So wake up little girl you're a woman now   But we were losing friends over love   Losing friends over love   We were losing friends over love   Losing friends over love      Alright now   Some move forward and some move back   Some buy a ticket and don't come back   How did everything go wrong   We all just try to carry on      No one says a word but there lips are poised   But everyone's got an opinion of course   And we were losing friends over love   Losing friends over love   All the stupid things you do at night   When you been up for three days   And your so uptight   And we where losing friends over love   Losing friends over love      Some move forward   And some move back   Some buy a ticket and don't come back   How did everything go wrong   We all just try to carry on      She could run away to London   She could run overseas   A go round in another town   It all seems the same to me      Alright now   Some move forward and some move back   Some buy a ticket and don come back   How did everything go wrong   We all just try to carry on
