"Can't Be Friends" is an R&B song by American recording artist Trey Songz. It was officially sent to U.S. urban radio on September 28, 2010 as the second single of Songz' fourth studio album, Passion, Pain & Pleasure. The song is produced by Mario Winans and written by Winans and Songz.

Lyrically, Trey Songz explains a bad breakup between him and his girlfriend and how they cannot be just friends after he fell in love with her.

The music is sampled from a piece known as "Bibo no aozora" composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto, released in 1996, which is also used in the 2006 film Babel.

Music video

The official music video for this song was released on September 7, 2010.[1] It is highly compared to Usher's "Confessions Part II" and "Trading Places" video, due to the very similar concept. It shows Trey on a chair, in a dark background, singing. As the song continues on, a girl makes her appearance and Trey goes shirtless.
