Lyrics

It's the end of our journey
What can I do?
Lonely together
When I'm alone with you

Now that we've come so far
It seems like the end
We could be lovers
We could never be friends

I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
...

We can never talk
Like others seem to do
Lonely together
Making love to you

We don't get nothing
From the letters we send
We could be lovers
We could never be friends

I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
...

Plus a new relationship
You know you break my heart
What I feel for you's too strong
It has been from the start
Everytime I see your face
It's tearing me apart
What I need is love from you
...?

I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
...
