Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wrote a goodbye note
In lipstick on your arm when you passed out
I couldn't bring myself to call
Except to call it quits
[Verse 2]
Best friends
Ex-friends till the end
Better off as lovers
Not the other way around
Racing through the city
Windows down in the back
Of yellow checkered cars
[Verse 3]
This city says
Come hell or high water
Well, I'm feeling hot and wet
I can't commit to a thing
Be it heart or hospital
[Verse 4]
Best friends
Ex-friends till the end
Better off as lovers
Not the other way around
Racing through the city
Windows down in the back
Of yellow checkered cars
[Verse 5]
The tombstones are waiting
They were half-engraved
They knew it was over
Just didn't know the date
[Verse 6]
I cast a spell over the West to make you think of me
The same way I think of you
This is a love song in my own way
Happily ever after below the waist
[Verse 7]
Best friends
Ex-friends till the end
Better off as lovers
Racing through the city
The windows down in the back
Of yellow checkered cars
[Verse 8]
Best friends
Ex-friends till the end
Better off as lovers
And not the other way around
Ex-friends till the end
Better off as lovers
