Text: The Stanley Brothers. Let's Part The Best Of Friends.

Each night I dream of you sweet heart
I can't see why we had to part
But there's no reason now to stay
For I was only in your way

Oh how I long to see your face
Tho' there's someone in my place
Or just to hear your voice again
Darling why not part the best of friends

I played the game of love and lost
My broken heart has paid the cost
And now that I am free to go
Somehow sweet heart I miss you so

Oh, how I long to see your face
Tho' there's someone in my place
Or just to hear your voice again
Darling why not part the best of friends

You say that you are happy now
I'll try to forget the past some how
But if your new love turns you down
Remember me, I'm still around

Oh, how I long to see your face
Tho' there's someone in my place
Or just to hear your voice again
Darling why not part the best of friends
