I couldn't get to sleep last night
Tossing and turning in my bed
Maybe I didn't hear you right
I can't believe the things you said

I hear the clock chime every hour
Still your last words linger on
You told me lovers could remain the best of friends
Then you were gone

What kind of friend
Would take my world and turn it over
Could let me cry upon her shoulder
Playing a game of let's pretend

What kind of friend
Would help me find my lost tomorrow
Then just replace the joy with sorrow
Knowing my broken heart won't mend

It's true that I've been hurt before
When love has made a fool of me
You'd think by now I'd know the score
Yet still the pain gets through to me

You say we're getting in too deep
In every letter that you send
Each night I cry myself to sleep
Is that the way the story ends

What kind of friend
Would take my world and turn it over
Would let me cry upon her shoulder
Playing a game of let's pretend

What kind of friend
Could help me find my lost tomorrow
Then just replace the joy with sorrow
Knowing my broken heart won't mend

Well I don't need that kind of friend
That kind of friend
What kind of friend
