Definitely friends, nothing sweethearts, certainly not lovers.
You look over, your lips adorn with a smile.
I remember this look, from a lover long gone on the timeline.
You make your way through the crowd, your gaze still completely tied to mine.
Definitely friends, maybe sweethearts, certainly not lovers.
My stomach rambles as soon as you come around, a simple talk is all it takes to create butterflies that won't shut down.
Is this all we are destined to be?
Not just friends, definitely sweethearts, probably lovers.
As you check for me in each of the reflections you pass, your smile imprinted in my brain like a goddamn photograph,
I grin over already blacked out memories,
that are able to make me happy cuz it's just you and me.
Probably friends, certainly sweethearts, perhaps lovers.
Is it true that you'd choose me before any others?
Is it true that you'd leave everything behind,
Not just friends, not sweethearts, definitely lovers,
thats what you tell me with you've been so kind.
But i can't seem to accept, that when you do all these things, it's nothing more and that overwhelmes me with the sorrow it brings.
Only friends, sweethearts n't exist, and if we'd be lovers...
- no. That case won't happen, my brain insists.
