[00:00.00]Can't We Be Friends - Betty Carter
[00:08.79]I thought I'd found the man of my dreams
[00:12.38]
[00:12.96]Now it seems this is how the story ends
[00:17.55]
[00:18.24]He's gonna turn me down and say
[00:20.81]Can't we be friends
[00:24.06]
[00:24.95]I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
[00:28.56]
[00:29.32]Not for long I can see the way this ends
[00:34.67]He's gonna turn me down and say
[00:37.29]Can't we be friends
[00:39.64]
[00:41.23]Never again
[00:44.17]Through with love through with men
[00:48.61]They play their game without shame
[00:52.46]And who's to blame
[00:57.28]I thought I'd found a man I could trust
[01:01.46]What a bust this is how the story ends
[01:06.46]
[01:07.20]He's gonna turn me down and say
[01:09.89]Can't we be friends
[01:11.88]
[01:47.56]Why should I care
[01:50.54]Though he gave me the air
[01:54.33]Why should I cry heave a sigh and wonder why
[02:03.34]I should have seen the signal to stop
[02:07.58]What a flop this is how the story ends
[02:12.38]
[02:13.14]He's gonna turn me down and say
[02:16.83]Can't we be friends
