[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 (I was your man)
[Pre-Chorus: R.L. & Deborah Cox, with R.L.]
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
[Chorus: R.L.]
We can't be friends
(Oh no, oh no, no, no)
We can't be friends
(Deborah, you know I can't go on being just your friend, yeah)
We can't be friends
'Cause I'm still in love with you, ooh, ooh
(Yeah)
[Verse 2: Deborah Cox]
I went by mother's house, 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
[Verse 3: R.L. & Deborah Cox, with Deborah Cox]
I've tried to think of you as just another love (Another love)
In the past (In my past), that didn't last
But it's not that simple, baby
[Chorus: Deborah Cox]
We can't be friends
(Oh no, no, no)
We can't be friends
If we, if we can't be lovers
We can't be friends
'Cause I'm still in love
[Bridge: R.L. & Deborah Cox, with R.L.]
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 to close to me and expect me to behave
I might just still a kiss if you come near my face
What I'm trying to say
[Chorus: Deborah Cox, R.L., & Both]
(We can't be friends)
(Oh, oh) We can't be friends
Can you look me in the eyes
And honestly say you don't love me? Oh, oh
(Deborah, you know, oh, oh, oh, oh)
We can't be friends (R.L. I know)
(I'll never, ever find another love like you, oh) We can't be friends
I love you too much, baby
I love you too much, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh (Woah)
We can't be friends, I'm still in love with you
With you
I am
Still in love
Still in love (You're making it hard for me)
With you
