You came in my home and took from me all that I had to give
I thought that we would be good friends for as long as we should live
I had some past experience with people just like you
But I never thought you were that kind, so what was I to do?
You were my friend, you were my friend
You were my friend, yes, you were my friend
You were my friend, you were my friend
How could you let me down?
You were my friend

How can you stand and lie to me and look me in the face?
I wish I knew what strange disease could make you act that way
All the things we did together
I've known you for so long
I always did believe in you
How could I be so wrong?
You were my friend, you were my friend
You were my friend, yes, you were my friend
You were my friend, you were my friend
How could you let me down?
You were my friend

I guess for the sake of all we had I should try to understand
But it just doesn't make much sense to me to trust in you again
I wish we could forget it all but I don't think that we can
Oh, why did this ever happen to us my best and dearest friend?
You were my friend, you were my friend
You were my friend, yes, you were my friend
You were my friend, you were my friend
How could you let me down?
You were my friend
You were my friend, you were my friend
You were my friend, yes, you were my friend
You were my friend, you were my friend
Tell me, how could you let me down?
You were my friend

Well, I guess that friendships all come to an end
