We Could Have Been The Closest Of Friends

(Album: Love Or Something Like It - 1978)

There you are and here am I
We are what we decided
Alone behind a wall of pride
Hopelessly divided
We had so much together, baby
What got into us
How could we just call it quits
We should have called for love

We could have been the closest of friends
We might have been the world's greatest lovers
Now we're just without each other
We could have been the closest of friends

I could say you did me wrong
You could say you didn't
Or we could sit and hold our tongues
And act like little children
I could say you never really loved me
And you could say the same
But if it's really over then who cares who was to blame

We could have been the closest of friends
We might have been the world's greatest lovers
Now we're just without each other
We could have been the closest of friends

We could have been the closest of friends
We might have been the world's greatest lovers
Now we're just without each other
We could have been the closest of friends
