We Can't Be Friends

Deborah Cox

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 

Verbally we agreed 
It was over and we were through 
I'm trying to compose myself 
But I just can't get over you 

We can't be friends 
We can't be friends 
We can't be friends 
'Cause I'm still in love with you 

I went by Mother's, saw your car there 
To her you're still family, and it don't seem fair 
For everyone to just go on 
I've tried and I can't do it 
'Cause I'm still torn 

I've tried to think of you 
As just another love in my past 
That didn't last 
But it's not that simple baby 

We can't be friends 
We can't be friends 
We can't be friends 
'Cause I'm still in love 

You may see me staring 
Or catch me in a daze 
May see me hang my head 
When you come my way 
Don't get too close to me 
And expect me to behave 
I might just sneak a kiss 
If you come near my face 
What I'm trying to say 

We can't be friends 
We can't be friends 
We can't be friends 
I'm still in love with you
