Boys & Girls Lyrics - Alabama Shakes

Oh why can't we be 

Best friends anymore? 

They say a friend 

Ain't to be 

Between a girl and a boy 

I don't know who said it 

Or why it got to be so wrong 

Oh why don't you call 

Don't you care anymore 

It's not fair 

Don't let them get you 

It took us both and now I got to fix you 

Well I don't know how to fix you 

You say it's just the way it's got to be, but how so? 

Why 

Is an awful lot of questions 

And I can't give me no answer 

I keep wondering on 

Oh why can't you see 

That I'm not trying to be 

No kind of bother 

I'm just trying to say what was left between you and me 

And where we left it before they took it 

And you know they took it all 

And took off 

Oh why did I let them drive a wedge between 

Well I watched it and I didn't say nothing 

And now I'm crying when I sleep 

Now I'm saying, I'm praying, to that sweet melody in my soul 

Why 

Is an awful lot of questions 

And I can't give me no answer 

I keep wondering on 

I wanna know who said it 

Who said it, oh Lord
