Why are we fighting?
Why do we scream?
Seems all we do now
Is treat each other mean

We used to be so understanding
About each others ways
And since we've come together
Seems all we do is get in each other's way

We're better friends than lovers
We used to have a ball
Let's not wait 'til the friendship breaks
We don't have to lose it all

We're better friends than lovers
Honey can't you see?
You need you and I, I need me
So it's time now to set each other free

You get mad if guys stare at me
And I'm mad if girls look
I don't believe we're ready now
For living by this book

The things we love about us
Are the things we seem to hate
And when we go out for good times
We just come home with big headaches

We're better friends than lovers
We used to have a ball
Let's not wait 'til the friendship breaks
'Cause we don't have to lose it all

We're better friends than lovers
Honey can't you see
You need you and I, I really need me
So it's time now to set each other free

We were both out there fishing
We weren't ready to care
And no room in our hearts for love
To love each other back, let's get back

We're better friends than lovers
We used to have a ball
Let's not wait 'til the friendship breaks
'Cause we don't have to lose it all

Better friends than lovers
Sugar can't you see?
You need you and I really need me
So it's time now really

We're so much better friends
We used to have a ball
'Til the friendship breaks
We don't have to lose it all

We're better friends than lovers
Baby can't you see
You need you and I really need me
So it's time now ohh yes, ohh really

We're so much better friends
I don't believe you anymore
We don't have to lose it all
