I listen to you when you got things on your mind
I try and tell you but you never have the time
You want my love but give me nothing in return
Are you satisfied
You think the grass is greener on the other side
You're chasing rainbows baby in an empty sky
Well it seems to me you don't know the reason why

CHORUS
We can be lovers maybe sometimes
We can pretend that we are so wild
But I can tell from the inside
What we have really don't mean a thing
You don't know how to be a friend of mine
Be a friend of mine
Be a friend of mine

Sometimes you tell me things
That makes me want to smile
I see right through you baby wider than a mile
You believe in what you say not what you do
Well that's sad baby
I'm not looking for someone that has to be like me
It doesn't matter that you have a history
All I want to know tell me that your aim is true

REPEAT CHORUS X3
You don't know how to be a
You don't know how to be a
You don't know how to be a friend of mine
