Analysis of Can't keep a friend a friend no more
Why can't we just be friends?
Every friendship eventually ends
Why can't we be more then friends?
We found attraction that energized our passion
With every expression exceeding expectation
Why can't we just be friends?
Sharing our thoughts and virtual kisses
Escalate the needs to quench our thirst with luscious lips
Why can't we be more then just friends?
Friendship ended some time ago
When we found ourselves in each other's hands
Let's share ourselves with each other
So this friendship never ends
