See each other (last spring)
Shake your hand, say hi
Long ago, long ago, long ago (spring)

I can't stop you, I can rock, too
I've been back there and I can, I got to
But I've got to know

Are we still friends? Can we be friends? (Last spring)
Are we still friends? Can we be? (Can we be friends?)
Are we still friends? Can we be friends? (Yeah)
Are we still friends?

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Are we still friends? Are we still friends?
Are we still friends? Are we still friends?
Are we still friends? (Friends, friends)
I said, are we still friends? (Friends, friends)
Are we still friends? (Friends, friends, friends, friends, friends)

Don't get green skin (green skin), keep contact (keep contact)
Don't say, "Goodbye, smell you later" (later)
Nah, I can't
I don't want to end the season on a bad episode, nigga, nah

Announcing our things and you don't know how to inform
Your power and dreams, though you cannot go through all
You're caught in this matrix, don't know where you're playing
You made it, could be your favorite if you make it your friend

Are we still friends? (This can't end)
Are we still friends? Are we still friends? (Need someone to say hi)
Are we, are we, are we, are we still friends?
Oh whoa

Can't say goodbye (yeah, ah, ah)
Can't say goodbye, goodbye (woo)

This song marks the fourth time Pharrell Williams has appeared on a Tyler song, the first time being “IFHY” on Wolf, the second being “KEEP DA O’S” off Cherry Bomb Read Full Bio“ARE WE STILL FRIENDS” features Tyler, The Creator wrestling the thought of whether or not he and his former lover can remain friends, thematically wrapping up the album and closing out the arc of falling in, and then out, of love.
