She's been good to me 
And her aim is plain, 
With an open mind 
And a tender way. 
As she looks through boxes of secondhand clothes 
She's a first class person as her best friend knows. 
She's been good to me 
Helped me not to lie, 
Listens to my words 
And the truth she finds. 
As I fell in love with my very best friend 
I didn't realise that our friendship would end. 
I learnt how to pray 
Every night, 
To relieve the pain 
Deep inside. 

I was serious with a furrowed brow 
I just fell in love what do I do now? 
As I fell in love with my very best friend 
I didn't realise that our friendship would end. 

It didn't work for us the lesson I learnt 
The fire was lit and I got burnt. 
And I fell in love with my very best friend 
I didn't realise that our friendship would end.
