lyrics

Friends
Words and Music by Maddy Rodriguez

Tell me, tell me that we're through just break it to me
But don't go try to break it to me gently
Rip the bandaid of my arm cuz either way I'll have a scar, go on and tell me
Tell me that you're leaving, do it quickly

Don't say goodbye by saying that you'll miss me.
If you're going, shut the door, if you don't want me anymore then tell me now
And get out,

But don't you tell me we'll be friends
Cuz that only means goodbye
And don't say we'll stay in touch if
I won't feel your touch tonight

Baby don't you knock, if you don't plan to make this right
And no making small talk. It's never small with you and I
No, we can't be friends
Till you give me back the love of my life.

Baby, baby if we're breaking up, release me
You can't keep me around until you might need me
You can't eat your cake and have it
Cause it doesn't work like that
It never will,
that's the deal...

So don't you tell me we'll be friends
Cuz that only means goodbye
And don't say we'll stay in touch if
I won't feel your touch tonight

Baby don't you knock, if you don't plan to make this right
And no making small talk. It's never small with you and I
No, we can't be friends
Till you give me back the love of my life.

A friend would not commit to me
And then just back out
Don't treat me like I'm stupid please
Cuz I know you now...

So don't you tell me we'll be friends
Cuz that only means goodbye
And don't say we'll stay in touch if
I won't feel your touch tonight

Baby don't you knock, if you don't plan to make this right
And no making small talk. It's never small with you and I
No, we can't be friends
No, we can't be friends
We can't be friends
Till you give me back the love of my life


Tell me, tell me that we're through just break it to me
