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 going to turn me down and say
 "Can't we be friends?"
 Never again
 Through with love, through with men
 They played 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 gonna turn me down and say
 "Can't we be friends?"
 Yes, I thought I knew the wheat from the chaff
 What a laugh, this is how the story ends
 I'd let her turn me down
 Say, "Can't we be friends?"
 But by that day I acted like a kid out of school
 What a fool, now I see this is the end
 I'd let her turn me down
 Say, "Can't we be friends?"
 Oh, why should I care
 Though she gave me the air?
 Why should I cry
 Ever sigh and wonder why?
 Yes, I should have seen the signal stop
 What a flop, this is how the story ends
 She's gonna turn me down
 Say, "Can't we be friends?"
 Why should I care
 Though he gave me the air?
 And why should I cry
 Ever sigh and wonder why?
 Yes, 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-, can't we be-
 Can't we be friends? Oh, yes!
