Loving You

Just Friends

When we’re together

You’re the only one I can see.

The rest of the world vanishes,

It’s just you and me.

I keep staring at you

As you continue to talk

I wish I could hold your hands

When we walk.

But then I see you holding her hands,

And realize I’ll be forever alone.

I want to give up and leave

But it’s so hard to let go.

It’s so difficult when the person you want

Is the person you can’t have.

And here I am

Wanting you with all I have.

But we’re just friends

And that’s what we’ll always be

You say you love her,

I wonder ‘why not me?’

But I don’t want to lose you

I want you by my side

That’s why I’ll stay here

And these feelings I’ll hide.

I’ll listen you talk about her

And silently wish it was me instead

I’ll see you hold and kiss her

And stand alone feeling broken.

And if anyone notices

The love in my eyes

And look past my fake smile

I’ll probably have to lie

You can never know

And you obviously never will

Because I’d rather see you love her

Than see you leave me.
