Can't We Be Friends?

I thought I'd found the man of my dreams

Now it seems, this is how the story ends

He's going to turn me down and say

Can't we be friends?

I thought for once it couldn't go wrong

Not for long, I can see the way this ends

He's gonna turn me down and say

Can't we be friends?

Ever again, through with love, through with men

They play their game without shame, and who's to blame?

I thought I'd found a man I could trust

What a bust, this is how the story ends

He's going to turn me down and say

Can't we be friends?

I thought I knew the wheat from the chaff

What a laugh, this is how our story ends

I'll let him turn me down and say

Can't we be friends?

I acted like a kid out of school

What a fool, now I see the way this ends

I let him turn me down and say

Can't we be friends?

Why should I care?

Though he gave me the air

Why should I cry?

He would sigh and wonder why

I should have seen the signal to stop

What a flop, this is how the story ends

I let him turn me down and say

Can't we be friends?

Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be friends?
