Letra de Can't We Be Friends?

[Ella Fitzgerald]

I thought I'd found the man of my dreams
Now it seems, this is how the story ends:
He's going to turn me down and say
Can't we be friends?

I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
Not for long! I can see the way this ends:
He's going to turn me down and say
Can't we be friends?

Never again! Through with love
Through with men!
They play their game without shame, and who's to blame?

I thought I'd found a man I could trust
What a bust! This is how the story ends:
He's going to turn me down and say
Can't we be friends?

[Louis Armstrong]
Yes, I thought I knew the wheat from the chaff
What a laugh, this is how our story ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
Can't we be friends

I acted like a kid out of school
What a fool, now I see this is the end
I'll let her turn me down and say
Can't we be friends


Oh what should I give
Though she gave me the air
Why should I cry
He was sigh and wonder why

Yes, I should have seen the signal to stop
What a flop, this is how the story ends
She's gonna turn me down and say
Can't we be friends

[Ella Fitzgerald ]
What should I give
Though he gave me the air
[ Lousi Armstrong]
And why should I cry
He was sigh and wonder why

[Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong]

I should have seen the signal to stop
What a flop, this is how the story ends
I let him turn me down and say

Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be
Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be friends
Oh yes
