I've been tryna 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 tryna 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'm not



And, that's why we can't be friends, yeah

Every time you're near me

Reminds me of how it used to be

And the feelings come back

That's why we can't be friends

Yеah, ain't good for my mindset

To have you in my mind just yet

I still want you likе 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



That's why we can't be friends, yeah

Every time you're near me

Reminds me of how it used to be

And the feelings come back

That's why we can't be friends

Yeah, 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 neighbors can hear my heart breaking (That's why we can't be, oh yeah)

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, friends)



That's why we can't be friends, yeah

Every time you're near me

Reminds me of how it used to be (Oh yeah)

And the feelings come back

That's why we can't be friends (Oh yeah)

Yeah, ain't good for my mindset (Oh, oh)

To have you in my mind just yet (Oh, oh, oh)

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 neighbors can hear my heart breaking (That's why we can't be, hear my heart breaking)

Okay, I ain’t okay, baby

You're out there while I'm inside waking up

My neighbors can hear my heart breaking

That's why we can't be friends
