[Verse 1]
Then I had a notion to fall out
I can see through the ocean in your eyes
Well, maybe we can do better, Baby?
You might want to light up on cigarette before I ask you

[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't we just be friends?
Ah yeah?
Your complications and impatience can go
Why can't we just be friends?
Ah yeah?

[Chorus]
Your implications, you tell me that you know
Don't tell me that you're down and out, it's running out
When you're around me lately, I see it now you're changing
We can't go back I get it now, no matter how
You tell me that you need some saving
I'll always keep you waiting

[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't we just be friends?
Ah yeah?
Your complications and impatience can go
Why can't we just be friends?
Ah yeah?

[Outro]
Your implications, you tell me that you know
You tell me that you love me, you tell me that you get it, you say it could be better if you fall in love
There's no way we can fall in love again

[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't we just be friends?
Ah yeah?
Your complications and impatience can go
Why can't we just be friends?
Ah yeah?

[Bridge]
Your implications, you tell me that you know
There's no way we can fall in love again
Why can't we just be?
