I SEE HER WALKING,
I LONG TO HAVE HER FOR ME,
BUT WE'RE JUST FRIENDS
WITHOUT INTIMACY.
SHE TAUNTS ME WITH THIS NOTION.
FRIENDS. FORCED TO BEFRIEND
A LOVE, DEAR AND SWEET;
LIKE A MAN FORCED TO DRINK
BUT UNABLE TO EAT.
WEAKNESS FILLS MY HEART, 
HEAVILY IT SINKS; DEEPER...
THE MANGLED REMAINS OF A GRACIOUS LOVE
I AM STILL BOUND TO HER.
THERE'S STILL A HOPE; A GLIMMER OF CHANCE,
ONE LAST SHOT AT ROMANCE.
I THINK IT'S BEST
WE JUST BE FRIENDS.
IT WOULD BE BEST DESPITE THE PAIN,
LET'S JUST BE FRIENDS RINGS
LOUD AND CLEAR; LIKE A CHIME
SHE'S CLEAR TO ME.
GET USED TO IT, I TELL MYSELF,
WE'LL NEVER BE MORE THAN FRIENDS
