Lyrics Olivia Newton-John

Olivia Newton-John

Don't Ask A Friend

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
