WHY CAN'T WE STILL BE FRIENDS?

Verse 1
Here’s just a line I’m writing to you,
If you could take just a moment or two…
To let me share what’s been on my mind
For what seems now such a long time…

Chorus
We used to be the closest of pals;
I was your guy and you were my gal.
I was your Tarzan and you were my Jane;
The two of us together, we were one and the same.

Refrain
Why can’t we still be friends? Why does that have to end?
A lot of water’s gone over the dam; Everything didn’t go like we’d planned;
It all seemed to just get out of hand, but…
Why can’t we still be friends?

Verse 2
Just one more thing and then I’ll be through;
I just can’t seem to take my mind off of you.
I tell myself, “You have to forget her.”
Then something always makes me remember… that…

Chorus
We used to be the closest of pals.
I was your guy and you were my gal.
I was your Tarzan and you were my Jane;
The two of us together, we were one and the same… So…

Refrain
Why can’t we still be friends? Why does that have to end?
A lot of water’s gone over the dam; Everything didn’t go like we planned;
It all seemed to just get out of hand, but…
Why can’t we still be friends?
[repeat]

Tag
Why can’t we still be friends?
Can’t we still be friends?
