We started out as friends
as I denied the feeling
You came to me
because you wanted more meaning
I did too but I was scared
so when you tried to be there, I left
I acted like I didn't mind,
'cause I didn't want to be bereft
I couldn't believe you chose me—
over anyone you knew better
But I carried on as if I never met you
'cause I thought things would get better
To be honest, I was finding it hard—
to keep my distance from you
But I think what I did was right.
Do you feel that too?
Time has come,
I finally got the nerve to look you in the eye
It was mesmerizing,
it almost shook me inside
I tried to mend what I tore
but the damage was done
I came back too late,
all the feeling was gone
