Best Friend

Oh, I remember on the fourth of July

That's when I learned it was true

The stories of taboo

How could you do it if your love was true?

And still want to be in my life

And make no sacrifice

Now you come and tell me that you're really sorry

And ask to be in my life again

Oh, no, there's no way to begin

Or start love over

Oh, no lovemaking will there be here tonight

Ooh, oh, oh, don't you sigh

Or come crying on my shoulder

Should've thought about the consequences then

You and my best friend

Oh, I recall the pain, it hurt so bad

I didn't have the strength to live

But I was just too young to die

See I have had my heart broken before

But never like this

I admit, baby, it left me feeling scorned

Now the love inside my heart is fading

The trust of my man and my best friend betrayed

Oh, no, baby there's no way to begin

Or start love over

Oh, no lovemaking will there be here tonight

Ooh, oh, oh, don't you sigh

Or come crying on my shoulder

Should've thought about the consequences then

You and my best friend

How could you do that to me?

And tell me that our love would always be

Always be

Oh, no, there's no way to begin

Or start love over

Oh, no lovemaking will there be here tonight

Ooh, oh, oh, don't you sigh

Or come crying on my shoulder

Should've thought about the consequences then

You and my best friend

I ain't taking you back

Oh, no lovemaking will there be here tonight, baby

Oh yeah

Oh, no more holding hands walking through the park

Oh no

Should've thought about the consequences then

You and my best friend

Oh, what a friend
