Jamie Cullum - Why Can't We Be Friends

I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams, so 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?"


Never again and through it all and through it then,
they play their games without shame and who's to blame?

I thought I found the gal I could trust,
whatta bust, this is how the story ends:
She's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be just friends?"

Never again and through it all and through it then
they play their games without shame and who's to blame?

i Should've got their signal to stop,
what a flop, now see the way this ends.
I let her turns me down and say 'cant we be friends?"
