[Verse 1]

Then I had a notion to fall out

I can see through the ocean in your eyes

Well, maybe we can do better, Baby?

You might want to light up on cigarette before I ask you

[Pre-Chorus]

Why can't we just be friends?

Ah yeah?

Your complications and impatience can go

Why can't we just be friends?

Ah yeah?

[Chorus]

Your implications, you tell me that you know

Don't tell me that you're down and out, it's running out

When you're around me lately, I see it now you're changing

We can't go back I get it now, no matter how

You tell me that you need some saving

I'll always keep you waiting

[Pre-Chorus]

Why can't we just be friends?

Ah yeah?

Your complications and impatience can go

Why can't we just be friends?

Ah yeah?

[Outro]

Your implications, you tell me that you know

You tell me that you love me, you tell me that you get it, you say it could be better if you fall in love

There's no way we can fall in love again

[Pre-Chorus]

Why can't we just be friends?

Ah yeah?

Your complications and impatience can go

Why can't we just be friends?

Ah yeah?

[Bridge]

Your implications, you tell me that you know

There's no way we can fall in love again

Why can't we just be?
