I tried being just friends with you but I couldn't
I thought I was over this feeling but I wasn't.
I tried being just friends with you but I couldn't.
Because it's hard not being 'with you' when I'm with you.
I tried being just friends with you but I couldn't
Because I can't stand not being the reason for your smile
It's so hard to have to walk away wondering if you'll miss me while I'm gone
Or if I'll just be a faded memory not worthy of remembering.
Now that you just another story on my life's timeline.
I tried being just friends with you but I couldn't
So I'll keep my distance and hope on time to take the pain away.
