No, it wasn’t long ago
When we were lovers too
But now that we’ve broken up
We thought that bein’ friends was cool


When we started to see other people
I thought it would be okay
Till I found that you fell in love
With another girl in just one day


So I called you up
Just to try to talk some sense in you
But of course you think I’m jealous
Now I remember why we’re through


Boy, would you listen
Before your decision
I’m just trying to be your friend, oh, ho, ho


Don’t know why I can’t stop thinkin’ ‘bout you (I
don’t know why)
I’ve warned you all that I could
But you’re gonna do what you wanna do (You’re gonna do
what you wanna do)
I throw my hands in the air (Hey)
But I can’t help it that I still care (Oh, you know I
still care, boy, you know I do)


Now it’s only just a month
She’s pushing you away
She wants to leave you
She doesn’t feel the same


How could someone act so cold
When you gave it all that you could
Maybe she didn’t know how
To treat you like a real woman should


And just like that
You fell in love with another again
You must be crazy, boy
I don’t even know where to begin


Cannot help feeling sorry (Oh, oh)
Don’t know why it still bothers me
I’m just trying to be your friend


I don’t know why I can’t stop thinkin’ ‘bout you (Oh,
oh, oh)
I’ve warned you all that I could (All that I could)
But you’re gonna do what you wanna do (Gonna do what
you wanna do)
I throw my hands in the air (Yeah)
But I can’t help it (No) that I still care (I’ll
always care, yes, I will)


It’s not that simple when I tell you I care (It’s not
that simple, no)
No, I’m not in love with you, but I don’t think it’s
fair (Woo)
When I can see you sufferin’, I can be that friend you
only need
To keep you falling on your hands (But you choose to
rush it instead)


I don’t know why I can’t stop thinkin’ ‘bout you
(Oh...)
I’ve warned you all that I could (All that I could)
But you’re gonna do what you wanna do (You’re gonna do
what you wanna do)
I throw my hands in the air (Hands in the air)
But I can’t help it that I still care (Can’t help that
I still care, can’t help that I still care about you)


I don’t know why I can’t stop thinkin’ ‘bout you (I
just can’t stop thinkin’ about you, baby)
I’ve warned you all that I could (All that I could)
But you’re gonna do what you wanna do (But you’re
gonna do what you wanna do)
I throw my hands in the air (I throw my hands in the
air)
But I can’t help it that I still care (All I wanna do
is be a friend to you, baby)


I throw my hands in the air (Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah)
But I can’t help it that I still care
Yeah, I’ll always care
Mmm...hmm...
