In our childhoods days   Together we would play   People said we were inseparable      Like a brother then   My protective friend   He would always take good care of me      Friends that's what we are just   Friends no more or less oh   Here we are sharing so much fun   Friends why can't he see that I want him   To be more than my friend      Years have come and gone   Still our friendship's strong   Now he's more than just the boy next door      I'm in love with him   Guess I've always been   He doesn't know he's all I'm living for      Friends that's all we are just   Friends so near yet so far from love   And oh the joy that he can bring   Friends why can't he see that I want him   To be more than my friend      I'd like to tell him that I need him bad   But I'm afraid if I do I might lose   The only friend that I have      Friends that's all were are just   Friends so near yet so far from love and thus   We'll always remain friends   Friends why can't he see that I want us   To be more than just friends.
