Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
Just be friends
In the morning light of yesterday I suddenly realized,
As I gathered up the broken shards of what use to be,
I wasn't thinking straight,
And I cut my finger by mistake
Is this what really became of the love we once both dreamed of?
I always knew the truth
At the bottom of my shy, beating heart
That making a choice
Wouldn't mend but tear us more apart
Love was never my thing,
It's so confusing and it stings.
There are no words that can excuse
All the mistakes that I've made
The world around me
Is decaying as your saying those words
I am struggling but it's all that I can do.
I remember your smile,
It was just so worthwhile,
Now it's a memory
No matter how I screamed out,
Only echoes answered me
My love, you're something I cannot live without
Your hand is no longer at the end of the red ribbon,
Nothing is left to connect the two of us anymore
I tried so hard to hold our cracking love together,
But I crumbled and the shards fell to the floor.
There's nothing we can do, life is just like that, baby"
As you said that, someone else's tears dripped down my dry cheeks.
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
Just be friends
In the midnight light of yesterday I suddenly realized
Picking up the fallen petals was just so meaningless.
Why did I never understand?
They can only wither and turn gray in my hand.
My world lost all its color and stopped turning long ago.
My heart beat so fast with the spring air
Blowing sweet and mild,
I still remember the moment we met
And how you smiled.
Slowly quarrels began to grow.
And we've hurt each other ever since we said hello.
The flowers of our hearts were concealing deadly thorns.
The world around me
Is decaying as your saying those words
I am struggling but it's all that I can do.
I remember your smile,
It was just so worthwhile,
Now it's a memory.
The rain is pouring down in my heart,
I'm standing dead,
I'm walking blind
Because of what you said
Despite all of my running, rain continues to follow,
This pain is not something that I can simply swallow.
Your hand is no longer at the end of the red ribbon,
Nothing's left to connect the two of us anymore
Goodbye, my love,
This is the end
Please don't watch as I cry
I'm not sure if my heart will mend
But I have to let go of your hand
Ohh
If I had one wish,
If I had only one wish,
I'd ask that we be reborn eternally
And I'd hold your hand
And never let go,
I'd hold you through the night and day
And never leave you
No matter how I screamed out,
Only echoes answered me
My love, you're something I cannot live without
Your hand is no longer at the end of the red ribbon,
Nothing is left to connect the two of us anymore
I tried so hard to hold our cracking love together,
But I crumbled and the shards fell to the floor.
There's nothing we can do, life is just like that, baby"
As you said that, someone else's tears dripped down my dry cheeks.
This is goodbye baby
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
All we gotta do
Is just be friends
Just be friends
Just be friends
Just be friends
