| Deborah Cox & R.L. "We Can't Be Friends" |
| (Verse 1 - R.L.) |
| 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, was your man |
| Verbally we'd agreed it was over |
| And we were through |
| I'm trying to compose myself |
| But I just can't get over you, girl |
| (Chorus) |
| We can't be friends |
| <Yeah...oh, no, oh...oh, no, no...> |
| We can't be friends |
| <Deborah, you know why I can't go on being just your friend...> |
| We can't be friends <Oh...> |
| 'Cause I'm still in love with you... |
| (Verse 2 - Deborah Cox) |
| 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 |
| And I've tried and I can't do it |
| 'Cause I'm still torn |
| I tried to think of you as just another love |
| In my past that didn't last |
| But it's not that simple, baby |
| (Chorus) |
| We can't be friends <We...> |
| <Oh...no, no, no, oh...> |
| We can't be friends <We...> |
| <If we, if we can't be lovers> |
| We can't be friends <We...> |
| 'Cause I'm still in love with you |
| (Bridge) |
| 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 steal a kiss |
| If you come near my face |
| What I'm trying to say... |
| (Chorus) |
| We can't be friends <We can't be friends> |
| We can't be friends |
| <Can you look me in the eyes and honestly say you don't love me, oh...> |
| We can't be friends <Said do you know, R.L. I know> |
| We can't be friends |
| <I'll never ever find another love like you, oh...> |
| <I love you so much, baby> |
| <I love you too much, oh...> |
| (Ending) |
| We can't be friends |
| I'm still in love |
| With you |
| With you, oh... |
| I am |
| Still in love |
| Still in love |
| You didn't have to leave |
| With you |
