We Can't Be Friends Lyrics

We can't be friends, you can't drop by,
If I run into your brother, can't tell him to tell you 'hi'.
You can't call, I can't pick up
We can't meet for margaritas, I can't wear that dress you love.
Cause you'll look at me, like I want you to
Then we'll brush hands like we accidentally always do
We'll stay too fucking late, we'll laugh too hard, hug too long
And that ain't too far from waking up right where we've always been.
We can't be friends, we both know that
You can't tell me you don't love her and I've got no right to ask.
So I'll pretend like I don't care
I won't send a birthday card and if you see me out somewhere
Don't look at me, like I want you to
Cause we'll brush hands like we accidentally always do
We'll stay too late, we'll laugh too hard, hug too long

And that ain't too far from waking up right where we've always been.
We can't be friends...
We can't be friends, it's just too tough
It's not that I don't love you, it's that I love you way too much
And we'll just end up here again
We can't be friends...
