We two were sweethearts
but we said goodbye,
One with a handshake
and one with a sigh,
we two were sweethearts
by a sacred vow,
what are we now?
What are we now?

Just friends
Lovers no more
Just friends
but not like before,
to think of what we've been
and not to kiss again
seems like pretending.
It isn't the ending
two friends drifting apart.
Two friends
but one broken heart,
we loved, we laughed, we cried
and suddenly love died.
The story ends
and we're just friends.

Just friends
Lovers no more
Just friends
but not like before,
to think of what we've been
and not to kiss again
seems like pretending.
It isn't the ending
two friends drifting apart.
Two friends
but one broken heart,
we loved, we laughed, we cried
and suddenly love died.
The story ends
and we're just friends.

Where are the sunbeams
that were in your eyes,
Sometimes I wonder
if they too were lies.
We who were lovers
are now only friends
That's how it ends
That's how it ends.

Just friends
Lovers no more
Just friends
but not like before,
to think of what we've been
and not to kiss again
seems like pretending.
It isn't the ending
two friends drifting apart.
Two friends
but one broken heart,
we loved, we laughed, we cried
and suddenly love died.
The story ends
and we're just friends.

Just friends
Lovers no more
Just friends
but not like before,
to think of what we've been
and not to kiss again
seems like pretending.
It isn't the ending
two friends drifting apart.
Two friends
but one broken heart,
we loved, we laughed, we cried
and suddenly love died.
The story ends
and we're just friends.
