We Could Have Been The Closest Of Friends

(album: Singer Of Songs - 1978)

There you are and here am I
Right where we decided
Alone behind a wall of pride
Hopelessly divided

We had so much together, baby
What were we thinking of
How could we just call it quits
When we should have called it love

We could have been the closest of friends
Might have been the world's greatest lovers
Here we are 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
And you could say the same
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
Here we are 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
Here we are without each other
We could have been the closest of friends
