You Can't be My Friend

Words and Music by Brian Griffin (7-6-05)

Said I always be there for you

Meant every word then and I still do

Didn't give you just a part of myself

Gave all I had to you

You said we can't be together now

You said we can't be like we were before

You said it's all too painful now

And you can't be my friend no more

I said I understand your feelings

So many wanted you to be rid of me

Odds were stacked up aginist us from the start

They wouldn't let us be

So you couldn't take it and you're moving on

Love couldn't keep you from walking out the door

You wanna try and make a clean break

And you can't be my friend no more

You always told me to gaurd my heart

Don't give it up for something that's not true

Well I let down my gaurd and gave in to love

I gave my heart to you

I promise I'll try not to hang on

If you don't want me to

I don't want to interfere with your happiness

I want the best for you

I gonna try and not think about it all

Think about who you are now living for

The worst thing that crosses my mind these days is

You don't wanna be my friend

You don't wanna be my friend no

You don't wanna be my friend no more

I said I'll always be there for you

Meant every word then and I still do...
