Just Be Friends

Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
Just be friends
Just be friends

In the morning light of yesterday I suddenly realized
As I gathered up the broken shards of what used to be
I wasn't thinking straight
And I cut my finger by mistake
Is this what really became of the love we once both dreamed of?

I always knew the truth at the bottom of my shy, beating heart
That making a choice wouldn't mend but tear us more apart
Love was never my thing
It's so confusing and it stings
There are no words that can excuse all the mistakes that I've made

The world around me
Is decaying as your saying those words
I am struggling but it's all that I can do
I remember your smile
It was just so worthwhile
Now it's a memory

No matter how I screamed out, only echoes answered me
My love, you're something I cannot live without
Your hand is no longer at the end of the red ribbon
Nothing is left to connect the two of us anymore
I tried so hard to hold our cracking love together
But I crumbled and the shards fell to the floor

"There's nothing we can do, life is just like that, baby"
As you said that, someone else's tears dripped down my dry cheeks

All we gotta do
Is just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
Just be friends

In the midnight light of yesterday I suddenly realized
Picking up the fallen petals was just so meaningless
Why did I never understand?
They can only wither and turn gray in my hand
My world lost all its color and stopped turning long ago

My heart beat so fast with the spring air blowing sweet and mild
I still remember the moment we met and how you smiled
Slowly quarrels began to grow
And we've hurt each other ever since we said hello

The flowers of our hearts were concealing deadly thorns

The world around me
Is decaying as your saying those words
I am struggling but it's all that I can do
I remember your smile
It was just so worthwhile
Now it's a memory

The rain is pouring down in my heart
I'm standing dead
I'm walking blind
Because of what you said

Despite all of my running, rain continues to follow
This pain is not something that I can simply swallow

Your hand is no longer at the end of the red ribbon
Nothing's left to connect the two of us anymore
Goodbye, my love
This is the end
Please don't watch as I cry
I'm not sure if my heart will mend
But I have to let go of your hand
Ohh

If I had one wish
If I had only one wish
I'd ask that we be reborn eternally
And I'd hold your hand
And never let go
I'd hold you through the night and day
And never leave you

No matter how I screamed out, only echoes answered me
My love, you're something I cannot live without
Your hand is no longer at the end of the red ribbon
Nothing is left to connect the two of us anymore
I tried so hard to hold our cracking love together
But I crumbled and the shards fell to the floor

"There's nothing we can do, life is just like that, baby"
As you said that, someone else's tears dripped down my dry cheeks

This is goodbye baby

Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
Just be friends
Just be friends

Ohhh woahhh
Just be friends...
Just be friends
