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

Best friends
Ex-friends til the end
Better off as lovers
And not other way around
Racing through the city
Windows down
In the back of
Yellow-checkered cars

You're wrong
Are we all wrong?
You're wrong
Are we all wrong?

This city says
Come hell or high water
When I'm feeling hot and wet
I can't commit to a thing
Be it heart or hospital

Best friends
Ex-friends til the end
Better off as lovers
And not other way around
Racing through the city
Windows down
In the back of
Yellow-checkered cars

You're wrong
Are we all wrong?
You're wrong
Are we all wrong?

The tombstones were waiting
They were half engraved
They knew it was over
Just didn't know the date

And 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

Best friends
Ex-friends til the end
Better off as lovers
Racing through the city
Windows down
In the back of
Yellow-checkered cars

You're wrong
Are we all wrong?
You're wrong
Are we all wrong?

Best friends
Ex-friends til the end
Better off as lovers
And not other way around
Ex-friends to the end
Better off as you're wrong
