This Is Why We Can't Be Friends

I'm trying to move on from you
But you keep coming back in my mind
I swear you bought property this time

It's not easy to let go of you
You're in everything I see
Even when I close my eyes in my dreams

You'd think us having space would be working
But now all I'm doing is thinking
What you're up to, where's your head at
How's your heart and
Will I get you back?

This is why we can't be friends
Even though I wish I could
I know it's something you want
For me, it'd be too much

This is why we can't be friends
I'd always want something more
I'd probably get my hopes up
If everything's unsure

This is why we can't be
This is why we can't be
This is why we can't be, hm-mm

If I'm being honest
There was a time when I thought we could be
Something just, hm, so casually
But that point has passed
There's no going back
Oh, I've fallen in too deep
Drowning in all my feelings

Oh, you'd think us having space would be working
But now all I'm doing is hurting
Take the pictures down, put the letters away
Nothing around
But still your memories stay

This is why we can't be friends
Even though I wish I could
I know it's something you want
But for me, it'd be too much

This is why we can't be friends
I'd always want something more
I'd probably get my hopes up
If everything's unsure

This is why we can't be
This is why we can't be
This is why we can't be friends no more
Oh, friends no more

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, hmm-mm

Maybe down the line
If our paths cross again
Enough time would have passed
And I'd consider it

But this is why we can't be friends
Even though I wish I could
I know it's something you want
But for me, it'd be too much

This is why we can't be friends
I'd always want something more
I'd probably get my hopes up
If everything's unsure

This is why we can't be
This is why we can't be
This is why we can't be friends no more
Oh, friends no more

I wish we could be
I wish we could be
I wish we could be more than friends
Oh, more than friends
