Try to Win a Friend
When it's over, really over
There ain't nothin' can start it over again
Pack your bags and leave, ain't no use to grieve
Though you've lost a lover, try to win a friend
The parting's easier when there are smiles instead of tears
In your dreams, you see that moment even if you live a million years
Shake hands, goodbye then, for remember when
Though you've lost a lover, try to win a friend
Let him go home, and cry your eyes out
You'll only feel a little better
Try to keep your body busy and let your mind forget him
'Cause when it's over, really over
There ain't nothin' can start it over again
Shake hands, goodbye then, for remember when
Though you've lost a lover, try to win a friend
Though you leave behind a lover
Leave behind a friend
Try to win a friend
There ain't nothin' can start it over again
Pack your bags and leave, ain't no use to grieve
Though you've lost a lover, try to win a friend
The parting's easier when there are smiles instead of tears
In your dreams, you see that moment even if you live a million years
Shake hands, goodbye then, for remember when
Though you've lost a lover, try to win a friend
Let him go home, and cry your eyes out
You'll only feel a little better
Try to keep your body busy and let your mind forget him
'Cause when it's over, really over
There ain't nothin' can start it over again
Shake hands, goodbye then, for remember when
Though you've lost a lover, try to win a friend
Though you leave behind a lover
Leave behind a friend
Try to win a friend
