Loving a Friend

I see that he's left you and hurt your heart,
I hate being honest, but it's about time you two came apart
He really just wasn't right.
Watching you two, it was like an endless fight.
I know you think of me like a friend,
But I hope someday I can be more.
I guess it will just all depend
on whether or not I can tell you before you meet another superman,
And then I'll just have to wait yet again.
But girl, just for now, don't you cry,
It'll all be alright if you just try.
And if these words don't make you feel tall,
Lay your head on my shoulder and let the tears fall.
This is how I show my love for my friend,
Helping her find love again.

Maybe someday you'll want my heart,
But then and now may be years apart.
So for right now, I'll be who you need,
A guy who won't say anything.
Just sit here and hold you close,
Wipe the tears from your cheeks,
Smile and make you see,
You don't need him, you've got all you need.
So girl, don't you cry,
It'll all be alright if you just try.
And if these words don't make you feel tall,
Lay your head on my shoulder and let the tears fall.
This is what its like to be your friend,
This is how we find love again.

Looking in your eyes, I see great pain,
But maybe thats just cause I see my reflection in your teary eyes.
I wish I could tell you it's you I love.
But I see that nows not the right time.
Knowing you, you'll find another man,
One who says he cares and understands,
But he'll never love you like I can.
But girl, just don't cry,
It'll be alright if you just try.
And if these words don't make you feel tall,
Lay your head on my shoulder and let the tears fall.
This is what its like to be your friend,
And I'm falling in love with you yet again.
