Boys & Girls (Live At KCRW)

Oh, why can't we be best friends anymore?

They say a friend ain't to be

Between a girl and a boy

I don't know who said it

Or why it got to be so wrong

Oh, why don't you call?

Don't you care anymore?

It's not fair

Don't let 'em get you

It took us both and now I got to fix you

Well, I don't know how I'm gon' fix you

They say, "Brittany, that's just the way it is got to be"

But why so?

"Why"

Is an awful lot of questions

And I can't get me no answer

I keep wondering on

Oh, why can't you see that I'm not trying to be

No kind of bother? No, I'm just trying

To save what was left between you and me

And where we left it before they took it

You know they took it all and took off

Oh, why did I let them drive a wedge between us?

Well, I watched it and I didn't say nothing

Now I'm crying in my sleep

Now I'm sayin', I'm prayin' to that sweet melody in my soul

"Why"

Well, it's an awful lot of question

You know it is, ooh

And if I can't get me no answer

I keep wondering on

I wanna know who said it

Who said that, oh, Lord
