From a Lover to a Friend Lyrics

[Verse]
And when the time comes around, we will be duty bound
To tell the truth of what we've seen
And what we haven't found will not be going down
Despite too easy ride to see

[Chorus]
From a lover to a friend, take your own advice
Let me love again
Now that you turned out to be someone I can trust
Someone I believe

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh la la la la la la la
How can I walk when I can't find a way
I have a dilemma
All I want is to tell me
You're going to take it away

[Chorus]
From a lover to a friend
Take your own advice, let me love again
Now that you turned out to be
Someone I can trust, someone I believe

[Verse excerpt]
And what we haven't found
Will not be going down
Despite too easy ride to see
[Chorus]
From a lover to a friend, you turned out to be
Someone I believe
From a lover to a friend, take your own advice
Let me love again

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh la la la la la la la la
How can I walk when I can't find a way
I have a dilemma
All I want it is to tell me
You're going to take it away

[Outro]
From a lover to a friend
From a lover to a friend
From a lover to a friend
Let me love again

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
