Can'T We Still Be Friends

Well I don't wanna break your heart but I'm afraid I'm about to...
I just don't wanna be your boyfriend anymore and to be
Honest with you this has been a long time a coming and way
Overdue...
Don’t think this isn't hard on me 'cuz I know I mean the world
To you and you're not gonna give up without a fight but baby
That’s not how I want this to end; I still wanna be friends....
I know you don't know what to say right now but tomorrow
Maybe you'll see things in a different light oh baby believe me
This isn't how I wanted this to end, Can’t We Still Be Friends...
The last thing I want is to break your heart...you've been there
For me when I really needed someone the most maybe I led
You on too, too long, please forgive me honey...I just thought
I'd grow and learn to love you one of these days but alas
Somebody new has touched me in a way I never knew I
Could be touched, like my heart on wings to the wind and
I just can't pretend we could ever be more than just friends...
I know I was wrong for leading you on and this isn't how I
Wanted this to end but Can't We Still Be Friends, I still wanna
Be friends; say we can still be friends, Can’t We Still Be Friends!

Wishing you a very lovely day! In his light! God bless you!:) D.
