Friends

We thought that we are each other's friends
It felt so safe that it had to be true
Whenever we were in each other's arms
We felt more but there was nothing to do

Every time I tried to speak
You told me something you told nobody
And I figured out that you're telling me
Because I wasn't just somebody

I was your friend and you need me
I was your safe place, I was your home
And you feeling like that was all I need
So, why would I ask for more?

And we were friends, we were extraordinary
We were happy with the way the things were
But every time one of us talked to somebody
The other one felt jealous and hurt

So we tried to be perfect for each other
We didn't say anything but we didn't have to
We tried so hard and we fell even harder
It went from a crush to something more painful

They no longer flirted with us
They knew the truth like you and I did
But you and I never discussed
We knew that it's not going to disappear

I wonder how long we will do this
Before we both get sad and tired
Until we share our first kiss
We will continue to torment each other
