[Chorus]
Why can't we be friends?
It was so much easier
Before we got our feelings hurt
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be friends?
I used to be so close to you
What's a buddy supposed to do now?
'Cause I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be friends?
[Verse]
We used to thick as thieves
Hangin' every night
Man, I miss those days
God, I miss those times
Then something changed
It got weird and we don't know why
We can't talk about
What we're thinkin' now
[Pre-Chorus]
All I really wanna do is hang out
Voicemail told me you're busy now
Well I know what you said
But I don't understand it
[Chorus]
Why can't we be friends?
It was so much easier
Before we got our feelings hurt
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be friends?
I used to be so close to you
What's a buddy supposed to do now?
Cuz’ I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be friends?
[Verse 2]
I guess it makes sense
Cuz' we probably got too close
I am sorry for
Not being more careful
But tell me the problem with finally feeling known?
I was free around you
I felt like me around you
[Pre-Chorus]
Now every time we're in the same room
Our friends are around but I just see you
Well, it is what it is
But I wish it was different
[Chorus]
Why can't we be friends?
It was so much easier
Before we got our feelings hurt
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be friends?
I used to be so close to you
What's a buddy supposed to do now?
Cuz' I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be friends?
[Bridge]
The only thing I got for you is love, love, love
And I guess that's why we can't
We can't
We can't
[Chorus]
Why can't we be friends?
It was so much easier
Before we got our feelings hurt
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Why can't we be
Oh, why can't we be friends?
