We Can’t Be Friends [Call Out Research Hook] Deborah Cox (Ft. 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
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:]
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
We can't be friends
'Cause I'm still in love with you
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've tried to think of you
As just another love in my past
That didn't last
But it's not that simple baby

[Chorus]
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
