We Can't Be Friends
Deborah Cox f/ R.L.

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
(Both)
I believe we agreed it was over
And we were through
(R.L.)
I'm trying to compose myself
But I just can't get over you

Chorus:
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
'Cause I'm still in love with you

Verse 2:
(Deborah)
I went by Mother's
Saw your car there
To her you're still family
An' it don't seem fair
For everyone
To just go on
An' I've tried an' I can't do it
'Cause I'm still torn
(Both)
I've tried to think of you as just another love
In my past, that didn't last
(Deborah)
But it's not that simple

Chorus

Bridge:
(Both)
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
An' expect me to behave
(R.L.)
I might just steal a kiss
(Both)
If you come in my face
What I'm tryin' to say:

Chorus:
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
I'm still in love with you
