Lyrics Can't We Be Friends? (Remastered) - Mildred Bailey

I 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,
Watta Bust, This Is How The Story Ends:
She's Gonna Turn Me Down And Say,
"Can't We Be Just Friends?"
