We Can'T Be Friends (Feat. 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 agreed it was over
And we were through
I'm trying to compose myself
But I just can't get over you, girl

We can't be friends (yeah, no oh)
We can't be friends
(Deborah, you know I can't go on being just your friend, yeah)
We can't be friends, oh
'Cause I'm still in love with you, yeah

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 (another love)
In my past that didn't last
But it's not that simple, baby

We (we) can't be friends (oh no, no, no, no)
We (we) can't be friends (if we, if we can't be lovers)
We can't be friends (we)
'Cause I'm still in love

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

We can't be friends (oh) (we can't be friends)
(Yeah, be friends) can you look me in the eyes (we can be friends)
And honestly say you don't love me?
Said do you know
R.L. I know (we can't be friends)
I'll never ever find another love like you, oh no
I love you too much baby
I love you too much, oh

We can't be friends, I'm still in love
With you (with you)
I am (still in love)
Still in love (you may get in love with me)
With you (with you)
