"Best Friend" lyrics - LISA LOEB

Your hands were in your pockets
Your head over your eyes
You didn't seem to know anybody
And neither did I

Then they started introductions
And name game all around
Everybody else took it seriously
But you and me
We laughed until we cried

When I first met you
I didn't think I liked you
But now that I know you
You could be my best friend
You could be my best friend

I am from the city
From the middle of nowhere
And we don't talk to strangers
I'll talk to anyone who's there

I like dogs and you like cats
I wear lots of colors and you wear only black
But we don't take these too seriously
So you and me, we're the perfect pair
Yeah, you and me, we're the perfect pair

When I first met you
I didn't think I liked you
But now that I know you
You could be my best friend
You could be my best friend

And then in a while
We'll look back and smile

'Cause when I first met you
I didn't think I liked you
But now that I know you
You could be my best friend
You could be my best friend

When I first met you
I didn't think I liked you
But now that I know you
You could be my best friend

When I first met you
I didn't think I liked you
Now that I know you
You could be my best friend

You could be my best friend
You could be my best friend
You could be my best friend
