I thought I found the man of dreams,

Now, it seems, this is how the story ends:

He's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends?"



I thought for once it couldn't go wrong,

Not for long; I can say the way this ends:

He's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends?"



Never again; through with love, through with men;

They play the game without shame,

And who's to blame?



I thought I found the man I could trust;

What a bust; this is how the story ends:

He's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends?"
