Dave Stewart - Why Can't We Be Friends Lyrics

Sometimes I wake up
With tears in my eyes
It's dark and it's lonely
Then I realize
That no matter
What I've been through
That moment has passed

You know that I love you
Like no other man
You were my darling
My polythene Pam
Now there's nothing
I can do
That moment has passed

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

People are crazy
People are strange
But whatever you're feeling
They're feeling the same
And just when you want to
Give them your love
That moment has passed

Well love can be reckless
Love can be wild
I was a refugee
And you were a child
Then I was a king and you were the queen
But that moment has passed

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

You had an angel
I had one too
Our lives together
Well nobody knew
That no matter
How good it was
That moment would pass

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends"
