My friend, my friend, you were loyal and true'
Til that wretch of a woman, well, she got to you
My friend, my friend, 
I've been down on my knees
But I won't be beggin', no more beggin' please
The black spot, the black spot
I 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'
Til you took our love away, left before long
My lover, my lover, 
I've 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
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
