RL]
To just act like we never were
To come around and not show hurt
How dare we greet by shaking hands
Just months ago, I was your man, was your man
Verbally weÔÇÖd agreed it was over
And we were through
IÔÇÖm trying to compose myself
But I just canÔÇÖt get over you, girl
We canÔÇÖt be friends
(Yeah, no oh)
We canÔÇÖt be friends
(Deborah, you know I canÔÇÖt go on being just your friend, yeah)
We canÔÇÖt be friends
Cuz IÔÇÖm still in love with you
[Deb]
I went by motherÔÇÖs, saw your car there
To her youÔÇÖre still family
And it donÔÇÖt seem fair
For everyone to just go on
And IÔÇÖve tried and I canÔÇÖt do it
Cuz IÔÇÖm still torn
I tried to think of you as just another love
In my past that didnÔÇÖt last
But itÔÇÖs not that simple, baby
We canÔÇÖt be friends
(Oh no, no, no, no)
We canÔÇÖt be friends
(If we, if we canÔÇÖt be lovers)
We canÔÇÖt be friends
Cuz IÔÇÖm still in love
[Both]
You may see me staring
Or catch me in a daze
May see me hang my head
When you come my way
DonÔÇÖt get too close to me
And expect me to behave
[RL ] I might just steal a kiss
[Both] If you come near my face
What IÔÇÖm trying to say
Repeat 1 while:
[RL ] We canÔÇÖt be friends
[Deb ] Can you look me in the eyes
and honestly say you dont love me?
[RL ] Said do you know
[Deb ] R.L. I know
[Both] IÔÇÖll never ever find another love like you, oh no
[RL ] I love you too much baby
[Deb ] I love you too much, oh
[Both] We canÔÇÖt be friends, IÔÇÖm still in love
[Deb ] with you
[RL ] With you
[Deb ] I am
[RL ] Still in love
[Deb ] Still in love
[RL ] You didnÔÇÖt have to leave
[Both] With you
