Lyrics Can't We Be Friends? - 1998 Digital Remaster - Frank Sinatra

Took each word she said as gospel truth
The way a silly little child would
I can't excuse it on the grounds of youth
I was no babe in the wild, wild wood
She didn't mean it, I should have seen it
But now it's too late
I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams,
Now it seems, this is how the story ends:
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
Not for long, I can see the way this ends:
She's gonna turn me down and say,
"Can't we be friends?"
Why should I care, though she gave me the air?
Why should I cry, heave a sigh
And wonder why?
And wonder why?
I thought I found the gal I could trust
What a bust, this is how the story ends:
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can't we be just friends?"
