You go east, I go west And leave all of this unhappiness Let's solve it someday And make the best of the rest of our lives, ooh Maybe down the road, we'll still be friends With a little love and tenderness You know sometimes, things have to go wrong If they're ever gonna turn out right, out right And it's funny how the best of lovers Wake up and discover When the loving comes to an end They're just barely friends When we're holding one another We're the very best of lovers But in the waking light of dawn We're just barely friends, barely friends You go north, I go south You won't be easy to live without But there's your sky to be out tonight So living like this, I hate A silence space, such a lonely shrine And I only hear your voice when you're not around I know tonight, I will awake And crave the sweet taste of your kiss (of your kiss) And it's funny how the best of lovers Wake up and discover When the loving comes to an end They're just barely friends When we're holding one another We're the very best of lovers But waking in each others arms We're just barely friends, barely friends We're just barely friends Waking in each others arms We're just barely friends, barely friends (Barely friends) Oh, oh
