Can't We Be Friends

I thought I found the man of my dreams Now it seems This is how the story ends He's going to turn me down And say "Can't we be friends?" I thought for once it couldn't go wrong Not for long I can see the way this ends He's going to turn me down And say "Can't we be friends?" Never again Through with love Through with men They play their game without shame And who's to blame? I thought I found a man I could trust What a bust This is how the story ends He's going to turn me down And say "Can't we be friends?" Why should I care Though he gave me the air? And why should I cry? Even sigh Or wonder why? I thought for once it couldn't go wrong Not for long I can see the way this ends He's going to turn me down And say "Can't we be Can't we be Can't we be Can't we be Can't we be Can't we be friends?" --- Can't We Be Friends - Linda Ronstadt
