I Met a Friend of Yours Today

Written by Wayland Holyfield & Bob McDill

Yes I know I'm late gettin' home tonight
Can supper wait, I guess I've lost my appetite
Yeah you can fix me a drink and anything's okay
Oh by the way I met a friend of yours today

I was workin' on the other side of town
And comin' home I thought I'd stop and have a round
And in this bar I heard someone speak your name
And that's how I met a friend of yours today

I listened for a while and I could tell
That that stranger there he knew you much too well
And I introduced myself and man you should have seen his face
Oh what a shame I met a friend of yours today

Please don't cry woman 'cause it's much too late for tears
Yeah, and I'm sorry too 'cause it hurts after all these years
And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way
And all because I met a friend of yours today

Ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way
And all because I met a friend of yours today
