Strum
D-DU-UDU
After  all we've been
To  one another
How  can we become
Like  sister and brother
Darling,  I beg  of you
If  our love must end
 Ask me to forget you
 But don't  ask me to be friends
After  being the one
That  you took pride in
I  just couldn't be
The  friend you confide in
If  it's goodbye for  us
We'll  never meet again
 Ask me to forget you
 But don't  ask me to be friends
Wanting  you so badly
Needing  you like this
How  can I just look at
 The lips  that I used to kiss
If  there's someone else
Don't  let me see him
Cause  I'll spend my life
 Wishing  I could be him
Darling,  I beg of  you
If  our love must end
 Ask me to forget you
 But don't  ask me to be friends
 Ask me to  forget you but  don't ask me to  be friends
