Lyrics

They were like two peas in a pod, you never saw her without him
So much in love it was almost odd, like wine flowing over the brim
Always kissing and hugging and giggling like teens
To their friends, it was slightly embarrassing
And then one day out of the blue, she announced that they were through
And all the loving came to an end, and so he turned to his best friend
Looking for some sympathy, from me
And now I must fess up to reality.

How can I tell him that now she's with me
I know he still loves her
He'll be real upset
That I've been having sex, with my best friend's ex.

The feeling of guilt is strong in me, how could it be any other way
Cuz she left him to be with me, and so we hide our love away
Until I figure out, if my best friend in the world
Is more important than this girl.

But when we meet after dark, and reignite that loving spark
With a kiss on the lips, and we touch way too much
And when we do what we always do, it's clear
That I have no choice, in where to go from here.

I must tell him, that now she's with me
Because he still loves her
He'll be real upset
That I've been having sex, with my best friend's ex.

I hope there's a chance that our friendship will survive
Cuz we've been best friends, since we were only five, and that's a mighty long time.

How can I tell him, that now she's with me
I've got to tell him, that she belongs with me
I need to tell him, that she's in love with me
I'm going to tell him
And he'll be real upset, that I've been having sex
With my best friend's ex. With my best friend's ex.
She's my best friend's ex. I love my best friend's ex.
