Don't Say We'll Be Friends
I hope that you don’t blame this guyI couldn’t help but have to tryNow what we never were beforeWe won’t be anymore.
I know the hardest thing to doMake sure the things you say are trueAnd though you know it’s going to hurtDarling, just say the words.
And every boy and girl lives in a different worldAnd I am just a man; I wouldn’t understandBut I won’t see you againDon’t say we’ll be friends
Don’t make idle promisesIf you don’t know, then don’t say yesA better offer comes alongI look up, and you’re gone
Now, I don’t wish we’d never metBut I would just as soon forgetWhat your convenience will allowIs no use to me now
And every boy and girl lives in a different worldI know I’m just a man, but I still understandThat I won’t see you againDon’t say we’ll be friends
And you don’t have to pretendDon’t say we’ll be friends © 2023 Bruce M. Gordon
