I got a message from you last night on the phone

You said you're missing me and I should call you

And after all the things we've been through in the end

I can't believe that we can't do what friends do



And I'm here

To tell you

I never broke my promise to you

No fear

No pressure

On you



But if we are just friends

Then how come I'm crying

You laugh

While inside I'm dying

Pretend

For your sake I'm lying

Be strong

You know that I'm trying to let you go free

If that's what you need from me

Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends



I still remember how you looked at me that way

Like I was everything you ever wanted

I didn't mean to let you down the way I did

Darkness descended and we just can't stop it



And you're here

To remind me

Of the things I said I would do

Don't you worry my dear

I'm right here

For you



But if we are just friends

Then how come I'm crying

You laugh

While inside I'm dying

Pretend

For your sake I'm lying

Be strong

You know that I'm trying to let you go free

If that's what you need from me

Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends



I'm trying to let you go free

If that's what you need from me

To let you go free

If that's what you need from me

Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
