Minnie Riperton
Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers
[Verse 1]
Sneaking kisses in the hall
Writing love notes on the wall
Bein' each other's all and all each day
Lovers walkin' in the rain
So close, we felt each other's pain
But now you say that love has died away

[Chorus]
'Cause we've ended now as lovers
Does it mean that we each other can't be friends?
'Cause we've ended now as lovers
Does our love for one another have to end?

[Verse 2]
I remember teaching you
On piano, "Tea for Two"
And how when playing wrong, I kissed your hand
But when our love has gone and passed
Why does the good exceed the bad?
Well, that's one thing I'll never understand

[Verse 3]
'Cause I remember us in class
You always were the one to pass
And gave me answers right to see me through
But that was more than years ago
And who will love me, I don't know
It's sad for sure but true it won't be you
[Chorus]
'Cause we've ended now as lovers
Does it mean that we each other can't be friends?
'Cause we've ended now as lovers
Does our love for one another have to end?
'Cause we've ended now as lovers
Doesn't mean that we each other can't be friends
Mmm, 'cause we've ended now as lovers
Does our love for one another have to end?
