Lyrics
I saw her big blue eyes from across the room
But I was too far away to smell her sweet perfume.
But something in her smile, told me "walk this way"
So I got a little closer just to give it a try
But when I tried to speak my mouth was dry,
So this was all I could say:
Friends let's be friends
No worries "bout the future, no worries how it ends
Friends, there's no messing with our heads
No strings attached, no heart attacks
No apologies when it goes bad
Just friends
But the night went better than I dreamed it could.
And five years later it's like Hollywood.
We had everything, even a four post bed.
But sometimes life goes too damn fast
And when there's no time to talk it just don't last
So she said lets be something else instead
Friends let's be friends
No worries "bout the future, no worries how it ends
Friends, there's no messing with our heads
No strings attached, no heart attacks
No apologies when it goes bad
Just friends
God I loved her and she loved me
But we lost site of all those things that people really need..... and that's a friend....
