Suzanne Vega - Just Friends lyrics

We're friends, that's all we are And that's all we will become It's understood We're only friends And it's better that way For everyone concerned So if you brush against me When we're walking side by side I won't wonder what you're thinking 'cause we've got nothing to hide And i know you didn't mean it that way 'cause we're just friends We're friends, that's all we are And that's all we'll ever be Is friends And we can split the cheque But we'll never bring the conversation Around to you and me If i see your hand upon me It's no reason for alarm I realize you must have seen Something walking down my arm And i know you didn't mean it that way 'cause we're just friends Oh i know, and you know That this is really the way That it ought to be 'cause if it was another way We'd have a lot of trouble And we'd end up in confusion And we'd lose a lot of sleep We both know better than to slip and go And get ourselves all tangled up again If we want to keep our peace of mind We've got to keep a little distance And just be friends Oh yeah, uh huh, oh So i'll try to understand When i feel your arm around my back That you really meant to do something else But somehow you've gotten off the track 'cause i know you didn't mean it that way 'cause we're just friends I know you didn't mean it that way Oh i know, you didn't mean it that way Yes i know, you didn't mean it that way 'cause we're just friends (1979)
