"She's just a friend," he said, "and that's all she'll ever be

But I can't get these thoughts of her out of my head

The cliche story once again, not as dramatic as it could be

But I can't help the way my thoughts are being led"


Can't you see she loves you in a special way?

Maybe more than you will ever really know

'Cause your mind is focused on a fictional storyline

You'll miss the happiness reality could hold


"This all hits home," I said, "and I can't believe it took so long

For me to finally see what's going on

With so many troubles in her life, romantic feelings wear her down

All she needs is someone that she can lean on"


Can't you see she loves you in a special way?

Maybe more than you will ever really know

'Cause your mind is focused on a fictional storyline

You'll miss the happiness reality could hold


I'll be your friend through thick and thin

The kind that you can always run to

When you're hurting and you need a helping hand

I'll be your friend when things are great

And all you wanna do is share your smile

And your cheerful happiness

I'll be your friend through your mistakes

'Cause we both know I've had my share

And yet you never took the chance to run away

I'll be your friend because you love me

For reasons I may never know


And that means more than meager words could ever say

that means more than meager words could ever say

You mean more than any words could ever say
