Lyrics - Can't We Be Friends? by Ella Fitzgerald

I thought
I’d found the man of my dreams.
Now it seems, this is how the story ends:
He’s goin’ to turn me down and say,
Can’t we be friends?
I thought for once it couldn’t go wrong.
Not for long!
I can se the way this ends:
Cnever again! through with love,
Throught with men!
They play their game without shame, and who’s to blame?
I thought
I’d found a man
I could trust.
What a bust! this is how the story ends:
He’s goin’ to turn me down and say,
Can’t we be friends?
