Could be "I Don't Want To Lose You" by Air Supply

I called on you today
I know it's late to say I'm sorry
There's so much on my mind
I feel as though the time is upon me
Do you know you take my heart
through the door
Are there words to tell you what I live for


I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you


Let me tell you right
Is this the last time I can hold you
There's hope in this soul
And words that will tread where you go to


Is it true you are leaving what you believe
Part of you will always be with me


I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you


You have the hand that I need
To get by understand what it is
That's turning me down


I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you


Is it true you are leaving what you believe
Part of you will always be with me

Well if it's not the above, there was a song by the Spinners, a flip side of one of their mid 70s 45s, called "I Don't Want To Lose You".  It's a slow song.

There is a song from the movie Sunburn  It is a soft ballad with lines like

(I know) one thing for sure
I don't want to lose your love
But you're not the girl you were before
And I don't know you anymore

Ba da da dada da da
I don't wanna lose you
Bada da dada da da 
I don't want to lose.

I am away from my vhs collection and my lps I have both the film and soundtrack but I cannot recall the artist and couldn't find it on line but I think this might be the song your friend is looking for.

i'd be willing to bet the song your friend is talking about is a top 10 tune from the fall of '79  -- Daryl Hall and John Oates "I Dont Want To Lose You" from their "Along The Red Ledge" album........I think the song peaked at around #10
