ORIGINAL LYRICS

If you find your sweetheart

In the arms of a friend

That's when your heartaches begin

When dreams of a lifetime

Must come to an end

That's when your heartaches begin

Love is a thing

You never can share

When you bring a friend into your love affair

That's the end of your sweetheart

That's the end of your friend

That's when your heartaches begin

(Spoken)

If you find your sweetheart

In the arms of your best friend

Brother, that's, that's when your heartaches

Begin

(Spoken)

And (you know) when (all your) dreams, when (all your) dreams of a lifetime

Must (, must) all come to an end

(Yeah,) That's, that's when your heartaches

Begin

(Spoken)

(Well,) You see, love is a thing that you never can share

And (you know, ) when you bring a friend

Into your love affair

That's the end (of your sweetheart)

(That's the end of your friend)

(That's when your heartaches begin)
