Or just lookin' through
G# D#
The others celebrate the end of the work week

We're a couple of gems
D#
Swept into the dustbin
[Verse 2]

When you pay your respects to the past
G# D#
I can't tell if it's a nervous laugh
G# A#
And you think we could've made it last

The others frail and they cut of their tails
G# F7

G# A#
We have the rest of our lives

Just gotta reach out and steal it

Ooh-ooh, you're sellin' me up the river

I can't seem to remember

Just a friend

They'll turn on the lights and we'll say our goodnights

Are we really just friends

Oh, are we really just friends
(repeat and end on E)
