Just...
Just friends, just friends.
We’re just friends.
That’s what I keep telling myself
But if this is true
And that’s all we are
Why do I still think of you?
And why am I thrilled when I talk to you?
And why am I thrilled when you talk to me?
And why do I keep playing with the idea
Of what we can never be?
But when I actually think about it,
I mean, really think it through
I know we’re really just friends
And I know what I should do
I just keep telling myself
Just friends,
We’re just friends.
I ask myself, “Where did you even get the idea?
It makes no sense at all.
I see no reason behind it.
There’s none that I recall.”
Then why do I find myself looking around
Whenever you’re not here?
And why am I excited to be next to you?
What changes when you’re near?
And why do I find myself
Looking back when you walk away
And why must I restrain myself
From asking you to stay
And why is it so much more bearable
When you’re a part of my day
But I’ll have to stop questioning myself
Since I know it will all be okay
Because…
We’re just friends,
Just friends.
