Can We Be Friends?

I only came here 'cause I thought I ought to
Standing at the bar, no-one I knew to talk to
I said "hello" to you because we met at that thing last year
Twenty minutes later we're still stood here
We only spoke for two ticks
But something clicked

Sorry if it seems like I'm not making sense
But this is not a thing I thought would happen again
That I'd say - hey hey
Can we be friends?

If we were teenagers we could join a gang
If we were in our twenties we could form a band
If we were in our thirties there'd be Pimms in marquees
I think I've finally seen the point of dinner parties
I don't want to sound weird
But do you fancy a beer?

Hey, can we be friends?
Sorry if it seems like I'm not making sense
But this is not a thing I thought would happen again
That I'd say - hey hey
Can we be friends?

The last time that it happened was a decade ago
But it feels like, at our age
You lose more people than you gain
So I say -

Hey, can we be friends?
Sorry if it seems like I'm not making sense
But this is not a thing I thought would happen again
That I'd say - hey hey
Can we be -
Hey, can we be friends?
Sorry if it seems like I'm not making sense
But this is not a thing I thought would happen again
That I'd say - hey hey
Can we be friends?
Can we be friends?
