And he's a friend of mine
And the two of you, are happy together
As long as the sun shines
But I'm always here, to lend you a shoulder
When it rains again

(Chorus)
'Cause I'm not the kind you want for your boyfriend
But I'll be your man's best friend

Well I guess it's no secret to any of us
How I feel about you
But to live it out vicariously through him
Is the best that I can do
If it's true that love is only a game
Well then I can play it pretend

This is not a lovers' triangle
'Cause I know what you see in him
Don't you know that a love unrequited
Is still love in the end
