Best Friend

Toni Braxton

Oh, I remember on the 4th of July 
That's when I learned it was true the stories of taboo 
How could you do it if your love was true 
And still want to be in my life and make no sacrifice 
Now you come and tell me that you're really sorry 
And ask to be in my life again 
Oh no there's no way to begin or start love over 
Oh no lovemaking will there be here tonite 
Oh don't you sigh 
Or come cryin' on my shoulder 
Should've thought about the consequences then 
You and my best friend 

Oh I recall the pain it hurt so bad 
I didn't have the strength to live but I was just too young to die 
See I have had my heart broken before 
But never like this I admit it baby left me feeling scorned 
Now the love inside my heart is fading 
The trust of my man and my best friend betrayed 

Chorus 

How could you do that to me 
And tell me that our love would always be 
Always be 

Chorus
