Well there you are
And here am I
We are what we decided
Alone behind a wall of pride
Hopelessly divided
We had so much together baby
What got into us
How could we just call it quits
We should have called the love
We could have been the closest of friends
We might have been the world's greatest lovers
But now we're just without each other
We could have been the closest of friends
I could say you did me wrong
You could say you didn't
And we could sit and hold our tongues
And act like little children
I could say you never really loved
And you could say the same
But if it's really over
Then who cares who was to blame
We could have been the closest of friends
We might have been the world's greatest lovers
But now we're just without each other
We could have been the closest of friends
Ohh oh
We could have been the closest of friends
We might have been the world's greatest lovers
But now we're just without each other
We could have been the closest of friends
Oh, we could have been the closest
