[Verse 1]
Cards on the table, baby
Speak your mind
If you've got something to say
I ask no questions and I tell no lies
Don't let that stand in your way

[Pre-Chorus]
Killing me, my friends keep telling me
Don't let a love break you down
Wild and free, that's what you want to be
But I don't think I'll be around

[Chorus]
First you wanna be my lover
(Say you wanna be my lover)
Then you wanna be my friend (Be my friend)
I think we're fooling one another
'Cause a friendship will end
But a true love will never die

True love will never die
True love, whoa yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
Cards on the table, baby
Don't be shy
Give it to me straight from the heart
I know the answers and the reasons why
I guess I knew from the start
[Pre-Chorus]
This is killing me, my friends keep telling me
Don't let a love break you down
Wild and free, that's what you want to be
Well, I just might not be around

[Chorus]
First you wanna be my lover, yeah yeah
Then you wanna be my friend (Be my friend)
I think we're fooling one another
'Cause a friendship will end
But a true love will never die

True love will never die, no, no

[Bridge]
Don't play these games with my heart
True love is so hard to find
Don't push too hard
You might be the one losing this time

My friends all tell me 'don't believe her'
She'll only tell you he's a friend
But he still comes around to see her
Well, a friendship will end
But a true love will never die
True love, true love will never
True love, no
This love is killing me
First you wanna be my lover, lover
Then you wanna be my friend, yeah
But I think we're fooling one another
Because a friendship will end, but a true love will never die

True love, true love will never
True love, no

My friends all tell me 'don't believe her'
She'll only tell you he's a friend, yeah
But he still comes around to see her
Well, a friendship will end, but a true love will never die
