Mildred Bailey - Sings... Me And The Blues

Can't We Be Friends

I thought I'd found the man of my dreams
Now it seems, this is how the story ends
He's goin' 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 goin' 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'd found a man I could trust
What a bust, this is how the story ends
He's goin' to turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"

Why should I care
Though he gave me the hand?
Why should I cry
Give a sign and wonder why?

I should have seen the signal to stop
What a flop, this is how to story ends
I let him turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends"
