I've been trying to hold it in, trying not to say
I still think of you the way I used to babe
Say I'm gonna hold it in, you don't feel the same
But now I'm overthinking how you looked at me

And I'm on the phone trying to call you, although I know you won't reply
'Cause now when it's three in the morning I'm not the one on your mind
And there's no point in even talking, I'll only make out I'm fine when I am not
And that's why we can't be friends

Ey every time you're near me, it reminds how I used to be
And the feelings come back, that's why we can't be friends
It ain't good for my mindset, to have you in my mind just yet
I still want you like that, that's why we can't be friends

Know I said I'm cool with it, going separate ways
But now you've moved on and I'm in the same place
I guess I thought that you'd turn back, say it's a mistake but you look happier
And that's why we can't be friends

Ey every time you're near me, it reminds how I used to be
And the feelings come back, that's why we can't be friends
It ain't good for my mindset, to have you in my mind just yet
I still want you like that, that's why we can't be friends

Okay, I ain't okay baby
You're out there while I'm inside waking up my neighbours can hear my heart breaking
That's why we can't be

Okay, I ain't okay baby
You're out there while I'm inside waking
Sorry I can't take it
That's why we can't be friends

That's why we can't be friends

Ey every time you're near me, it reminds how I used to be
And the feelings come back, that's why we can't be friends
It ain't good for my mindset, to have you in my mind just yet
I still want you like that, that's why we can't be

Okay, I ain't okay baby
You're out there while I'm inside waking up my neighbours can hear my heart breaking
That's why we can't be

Okay, I ain't okay baby
You're out there while I'm inside waking up my neighbours can hear my heart breaking
That's why we can't be
Friends
