Oh, why can't we be

Best friends anymore?

They say a friend

Ain't to be

Between a girl and a boy

I don't know who said it

Or why it got to be so wrong

Oh, why don't you call

Don't you care anymore

It's not fair

Don't let 'em get you

It took us both and now I got to fix you

Well I don't know how to fix you

You say it's just the way it's got to be, but how so?

Why

Is an awful lot of question

And I can't give me no answer

I keep wondering on

Oh, why can't you see

That I'm not trying to be

No kind of bother

I'm just trying to say what was left between you and me

And where we left it before they took it

And you know they took it all

And took off

Oh, why did I let them drive a wedge between

Well I watched it, and I didn't say nothing

And now I'm crying when I sleep

Now I'm sayin', I'm prayin', to that sweet melody in my soul

Why

Is an awful lot of question

And I can't give me no answer

I keep wondering on

I wanna know, who said it

Well who said that, oh Lord
