Lyrical Paradox | ✔

Best friends

I knew that I told you

It wasn't jealousy.

I was just curious of what you do

When you're with her and not me.

I wonder if you take her

In places you told me.

That we'll spend someday together

Just us, you and me.

I think of what you tell her

When you call her at night.

The same way you did to me

I remember it was last night.

I imagine the things you give her

'Cause you've given me the same.

That I promised to keep forever

I wonder if she did the same.

You made me cry on your shoulder,

You told me your lamest jokes.

We watched movies together,

And ran around like fools.

Our hands were intertwined

As we made our way to church.

I pretended to be your bride

You stared at me in return.

I was about to say "yes, I do",

When your phone in pocket rang.

You didn't even say a word,

You left me there and ran.

I waited for your call

But disappointment I did get.

I learned from a friend of yours

She needed you 'cause she's upset.

One, two, three days have passed,

We hardly see other.

You didn't even spare me a glance,

When we bumped into each other.

I can't take it anymore

So I asked you what was wrong.

I found out just this morning

That I loved you all along.

You said we cannot be

What we used to be before.

I asked "why?" and it hurt

To hear from you the answer.

"We're best friends" you told me,

Not even looking away.

"But I have her now,

And she wants us to part ways."

"Best friends" that's what we were,

And forever we will be.

I didn't get a chance to say

What I feel before you left me.

I loved you from the very start,

I will love you 'til the end.

Even if you broke my heart,

'Cause we are just "best friends".
