I don't know (I don't know) 

I don't know (I don't know) 

I don't know (I don't know) 

I don't know (I don't know) 



Baby I don't know if I can let you 

Get that close to me again 

Cause last time I let you 

Our life was one big argument 

And I'm willing to bet you 

That we'd be better off as friends 

Can you accept just being friends 



You're telling me that we should sit down 

And talk about us 

But truthfully, I really don't agree 

Cause we don't have much to discuss 

For some reason you think that we could work it out 

I have serious doubts 



Baby I don't know if I can let you 

Get that close to me again 

Cause last time I let you 

Our life was one big argument 

And I'm willing to bet you 

That we'd be better off as friends 

Can you accept just being friends 



If I said that I didn't still care about 

That would be the biggest lie I could ever tell 

I'm just tryna save myself from the drama 

Cause we have gone through so much hell 

And I don't wanna go back 



Baby I don't know if I can let you 

Get that close to me again 

Cause last time I let you 

Our life was one big argument 

And I'm willing to bet you 

That we'd be better off as friends 

Can you accept just being friends 



Baby I don't know if I can let you 

Get that close to me again 

Cause last time I let you 

Our life was one big argument 

And I'm willing to bet you 

That we'd be better off as friends 

Can you accept just being friends 



Let's be friends and only friends 

I bet you we should just be friends and only friends 



Baby I don't know if I can let you 

Get that close to me again 

Cause last time I let you 

Our life was one big argument 

And I'm willing to bet you 

That we'd be better off as friends 

Can you accept just being friends 



Baby im going out of town to handle some business 

For a few days 

But don't you worry 

'Cause I'll call you 

Like it's not 

Long distance 

'Cause I hate being away 

I hate being away from you 

I gotta go 

Even though I don't want to 

I'd rather stay 

Than to be away from you 



Since absence 

Has been known to 

Make the heart grow fonder 

Then you know 

That I miss you 

And this song 

Is just a reminder 

I hate being away 



I hate being away from you 

I've gotta go even though I don't want to 

I'd rather stay 

Than be away from you 

I can't wait to see your smiling face 

And cuddle up in front of the fireplace 

I'd rather stay 

Than be away from you 



Sometimes I find myself 

Reaching for you 

When talking on the phone 

Is all we can do 

But it won't be long until I'm back to you 

I'm counting the seconds 

The minutes 

The hours 

The days 

Until we're face to face 

'Cause I hate being away 



I hate being away from you 

I gotta go even though I don't want to 

I'd rather stay than to be away from you 

I can't wait to see your smiling face 

And cuddle up in front of the fireplace 

I'd rather stay than be away from you 



I hate being away from you 

I gotta go even though I don't want to 

I'd rather stay than to be away from you 

I can't wait to see your smiling face 

And cuddle up in front of the fireplace 

I'd rather stay than be away from you
