This might come as quite a shock,   But I've given it a lot of thought.   This thing that's come between us can't be ignored.   I've taken all I can;   This is where it's gotta end.   Cause I can't be your friend anymore.      And I can't be accused,   Of not bein' there for you.   How many nights have you shown up at my door?   I hope you understand,   That this wasn't in my plans,   But I can't be your friend anymore.      And it's killing me to know you,   Without havin' a chance to hold you.   An' all I wanna do is show you,   How I really feel inside.   You can run to me,   You can laugh at me,   Or you can walk right out that door.   But I can't be your friend anymore.      (Instrumental break)      So, baby, now it's up to you:   Do I win or do I lose?   Will my heart fly or lie broken on the floor.   Well, take me as I am,   Cause I wanna be your man.   But I can't be your friend anymore.      And' it's killing me to know you,   Without havin' a chance to hold you.   An' all I wanna do is show you,   How I really feel inside.   You can run to me,   You can laugh at me,   Or you can walk right out that door.   But I can't be just friends anymore.   We can't be just friends anymore.
