From the recording Walk Right Through

Lyrics

LET’S JUST BE FRIENDS

Let’s just be friends
We know how it goes
Better to pretend we don’t want anything
Then mess up again and wind up alone

Let’s just be friends we know how it goes
Right now I see you so clear but if I got near
It would all be just a blur

Right now the world is asleep
It’s just you and me counting sheep
We can’t afford to miss a beat
Or no-one’ll know how many there’ve been

And this whole game is planned
Nothing you can do but play your best hand
Predictable and perfect and true
The feeling I get when I am with you — ou ou ou ou
You — ou ou ou ou

Let’s just be friends
For once let’s be cool
‘Cos if we dive in
The stillness will end
We’ll just be those two fools in the pool

Let’s just be friends
Yeah we know how it goes
Right now we are free
And you can see me
And how I’m not your enemy

Right now the world is asleep
It’s just you and me counting sheep
We can’t afford to miss a beat
Or no-one’ll know how many there’ve been

And this whole game is planned
Nothing you can do but play your best hand
Predictable and perfect and true
The feeling I get when I am with you

What is love?
When you get away from all the heartache stuff?
Don’t wanna end up in a war that never ends
Oh can’t we be in love and just be frie - en - nds?
Be frie - en - nds?

Let’s just be friends
Yeah, we know how it goes
We've got something so rare
It’s easy to tear
A leaf made of gold
