My friend, my friend
You were loyal and true
Till that wretch of a woman
Well, she got to you
My friend, my friend
I been down on my knees
But I won't be beggin'
No more beggin' please
The black spot, the black spot
Never thought I'd be the one givin' it to you
The black spot, the black spot
My heart just ain't in it no more
My lover, my lover
We sure had somethin' strong
Till you took our love away
And left before long
My lover, my lover
I been down my knees
But I won't be beggin'
No more beggin' please
The black spot, the black spot
Never thought I'd be the one givin' it to you
The black spot, the black spot
My heart just ain't in it no more
You can build a love up
Make the foundation strong
But soon the cracks start to show
You can build a love up
As best as you can
But sooner or later, it's gonna show
