I took each word she said as gospel truth
The way a silly little child would.
I can't excuse it on the grounds of youth,
I was no babe in the wild, wild wood.
She didn't mean it,
I should have seen it,
But now it's too late.
I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams,
Now it seems,
This is how the story ends:
She's gonna 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:
She's gonna turn me down and say,
"Can't we be friends?"
Why should I care though she gave me the air,
Why should I cry,
Heave a sigh,
And wonder why,
And wonder why?
I thought I found the gal I could trust,
Watta bust, this is how the story ends:
She's gonna turn me down and say,
"Can't we be just friends?"
(Paul James, Kay Swift) I took each word she said as gospel truth The way a silly little child would. I can't excuse it on the grounds of youth, I was no babe in the wild, wild wood. She didn't mean it, I should have seen it, But now it's too late. I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams, Now it seems, This is how the story ends: She's gonna 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: She's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends?" Why should I care though she gave me the air, Why should I cry, Heave a sigh, And wonder why, And wonder why? I thought I found the gal I could trust, Watta bust, this is how the story ends: She's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be just friends?" Explain Request ×
