[Verse 1]
We can't play this game anymore
But can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before
But can we still be friends?
We had something to learn
Now it's time for the wheel to turn
Grains of sand one by one
Before you know it, it's all gone

[Verse 2]
Let's admit we made a mistake
But can we still be friends?
Heartbreak's never easy to take
But can we still be friends?
It's a strange sad affair
Sometimes seems like we just don't care
Don't waste time feeling hurt
We've been through hell together

[Chorus]
Where do we go from here?

[Verse 3]
We can't play this game anymore
But can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before
But can we still be friends?
We awoke from our dream
Things are not what they always seem
Memories linger on
It's like a sweet, sad, old song

[Chorus]
Where do we go from here
Where do we go from here

[Verse 4]
I can't play this game anymore
Can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before
I just wanna be friends
I just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
And now I just wanna be friends
We had something to learn, something to learn
Now can we still be friends?
Let's admit our mistakes
